I presume you mean with PCA? Does that include Prepared?

Nevermind. I just read that they are not DOT's so they wouldn't be acceptable in Prepared either.

Is there some rule during the 12 hours of the Point that lets you run a non-DOT for SM? I knew they were supposedly the same molds (the SM compound) but I didn't know you could run them w/out the DOT markings.

Adam, I was only half serious and was just trying to jibe Bill a bit b/c we have talked about running spec miata enduros. We ran Toyos at the VIR 13 hour and will continue most likely, but the DOT 04 hoosiers won the ARRC and might be the fastest.

Mitch,
Yeah, I'm going to get in that SM one of these days. My race schedule for next year is already pretty ambitious. 7 PCA races. WG in June !!

How would these compare to the SO4 if all I do is DE with them?

I have been running PSC's and have been thinking of giving Hoosiers a try. I am running 7"s and 9" x 17". Are the 225's and 275's going to work on these wheels? e
