Hey Mike/Al,
Curious, since Mike says they are like the Sweeps, were these new tires on the verge of having the car traction roll like the Sweeps? Did you have to glue the sidewalls?
I have preferred running Solaris in the past, and was just wondering if I would have to change the car's setup or tire prep.
thanks for the input.

In fact, I was at Tamiya America Raceway last week for some testing and the fastest modified time of the day was with SP35-EX tires.

We've been racing and selling them for a while now and they are my go to tire. They are just as fast (Or faster), last longer and are far less expensive than Sorex.

They are less expensive and just as good.

I've been running the new sp35ex tires practicing for reedy, and am very happy with them. Only takes a lap or 2 to get a new set going and am able to get 3 to 4 good runs on a set. The best part about these tires is how consistant they are through the run. Really makes it so you don't have to second guess yourself.

I've been super impressed with the SP35EX tires. Sorex is usually the dominant tire at my local track with nothing else working nearly as good. But the new solaris's work as good or better then sorex, and are cheaper. Very good tires!

What is the difference between the SP and SC shapes?

+1, as well, which is great, since I can't stand spending so much on Sorex. Fantastic tire, I really want to try the dish wheel.

I have a very limited number of SP35-EX dish wheels arriving this weekend.
