Default Hoosier Tires for GT3?

Gotta take the plunge and get a dedicated set of wheel-tires for the track. Hoosiers are the hot set up these days for Spec Miata (just got some for the racecar) and wonder if they have any in our size or if anyone has used them? Their site lists them only in a non-metric size chart...

I thought Spec Miata's used the RA1 or Hankook R compound...

If you are going with the Rs04 use the 245/35 front and the 305 rear. Are you sure you are looking at the right chart on their website.

I have run Hoosier SGS slicks 245/305's. Great tires. Have also run RS04 same size. Will try Hoosier Grand Am 04 spec at the end of the month. Have not been disappointed.

Hoosier R3SO4 in 245/40/18 and 305/30/18 the 245/35 are much shorter than the rears.
