Default Autocrossers - Possible new Hoosier A6 sizing for Cobras!!

This is a feeler thread to determine interest in Hoosiers A6 compound for the standard 15" Cobra wheels. Currently, Hoosier only supplies the DOT approved 15" rim size for 245/50 and 275/50 in the R6 compound.

I am in the initial stages of speaking with the Hoosier Product Line Manager responsible for road race tires and have asked him if they would consider this. His response to me stated that it was a possibility contingent on securing he could find a home for the entire production run of 60 tires / per size. This means we would need to find homes for 30 sets of A6 tires in the 245/50 275/50 sizing. This size is chosen because of the identical construction between the A6/R6 and the established sizing (mold) for the R6.

Please indicate interest in this thread and I will provide updates as I get more information (timing/cost/etc) back from Hoosier. The goal would be to stir up enough interest to start a "Group Buy" thread and begin securing the orders directly after the first of the year if not sooner.

Thanks in advance,

- Allen.
