Default DFW area scrubs?

I'm looking for some scrubs for some upcoming autocross event this year. 295/17 and 305 or 315/18 to go on a set of stock Z06 wheels.

Bobby Archer only has the 18's... Does anybody else know of anyone in the metroplex with scrubs?

What about anywhere else that I can have them shipped to me?

Bobby Archer is the best scrub tire source in the Metroplex. However, if there are other sources - please post the info. I run the 18" Z06 wheels at all 4 corners but have a full set of 17" Z06 wheels just sitting. Would be interested in 17" tire source if available...

From where we are it's only like $15-20 to ship tires. We have a good amount of 295/17's available in various stages of wear. Worst being 50% and better. Best being around 80%. They are Hoosier A6's and they rock! If you have somebody to provide 18's we can supplement the 17's for the front and at a very nice price as well!

Great way to get into the sport without making mama too mad!

Thanks,

Al

I've got a pair of 275/17 Hoosier A3S05's that are around 50%. Bagged and kept indoors, free if picked in north dallas. I'll have some 315/18's later in the spring.

I will be driving to Dallas from Wichita in a couple of weeks if you still have them then.

jtkeller will be picking these up. I'll let the board know when more come up.

If anyone can use 335/30/18's let me know, I do have a pair of those (A3S05) in really good shape for a fair price, and will have A6's coming later in the spring. Also have 285/30/18's also, good front tires.

How much are you wanting for the 285/3018's? I am in DFW and can pick them up.

I have two 295/17 Hoosier A6's available free if picked up at my house. Still have reasonable tread left. Also have a variety of Hoosier SO5's in 295/315 sizes, all 17", all still useable tread remaining.
