Let's assuming money was no object - what would your choice be then?
$800-1300 for tires.
ECS or Michelin PS4S on whatever wheels you have plus a tire trailer and a set of the biggest Rivals you can fit on some other wheels.
If I were to go with two different sets of tires and swap at the track, I would just go with a dedicated track tire at that point. Since I added the roll bar, my interior space has dropped, not allowing me 4 wheels and tires to fit.
Sold. But I'm keeping it at your house.
Installing Timken bearings right now with longer wheel studs. Im swapping out for added safety and age more than anything. The old ones didn't show concern or wear, but while I had the brakes off I decided to change them out.
Yeah, I saw that on his site but I didn't want to pay the extra. I talked with Sam Strano last month, I actually bought my spacers and studs through him. I'll give the timkens a shot and report back. New timkens have to be better than the stock GM units that were made 20 years ago and has 99k miles on them.MARKP wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 2:31 pm I have Timkens on mine but rumor has it they don't last long with track or autocross use. I would bring at least one spare with you.
From what I hear, the best option is Stanoparts setup using SKF hubs made for C5 Corvettes and an adapter. That's an expensive setup, though.

I've been reading this thread with quite a bit of interest. Sorry if I "hi-jacked" your conversation, but you have me thinking about the hubs on my C5. The car has 110K miles, and I'm positive they are original. Now I know that I don't put the stress on mine that you guys do, but all the same, should I be considering replacing them? Thanks for any and all advice.MARKP wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 2:31 pm I have Timkens on mine but rumor has it they don't last long with track or autocross use.

Haha but your car also makes 4,832 autocross runs per year.
