I am looking for a 2nd set of wheels for my SR8. Wondering if anyone has a source in the US?
Also, a good source for slicks?

Appropriate sizes would be appreciated too, if vary from stock Radical sizes.

Thanks!

MindBend,

Hoosier makes radial slicks in Radical sizes that are readily available from your favourite Hoosier dealer. Various Dunlop dealers can get the Dunlop "spec" tires as well.

As for wheels, as far as I know you'll need to get custom wheels made if you don't want to buy from the dealers/factory.

I always thought the price of wheels was reasonable, all things considered. Maybe I'm out of touch.....

Thanks. I found Hoosier makes a set here. I wonder how they compare performance-wise?

As far as I can tell the Hoosier is as good or better in both performance and longevity/durability.
