Ask other racers at the track what they are using. Watch and see who is cracking rims or always needing another set of tires and not getting long wear. Find the better tire to use. The better tire may cost a few dollars more initially, however that tire will be cheaper in the end!!!!
a perfect example is grp. These were like 22-23 a set last season. Now 25-27.

Even online they are misc brands 14-15 fronts. And 17-up for rears.

Never said I couldn't afford or didn't know what I wanted to use. Just commenting on the increase in price. All brands. Grp. Kyosho. Ennetti. Contact. Zac. Etc
