Track tires
Apparently I cannot find info on track tires for C8 Z51. I'm tired of reading 100s of posts that only have the word tire in it.
Have spare set of stock rims and looking for reasonable track tires.
i can't believe this forum doesn't have a dedicated tire section like all my motorcycle forums did.
any help appreciated with looking for track guys tire choices.

There is also Autocross & Track sub-forum, with useful discussions, some of which are for C8.

I run Nankang AR-1 with decent success. Ran Hoosier R7 and Nitto NT01 on my last car. I may go with Nankang CRS-V2 next if I dont go back to R7's on the C8.
