Default FS: Yoko Slicks Blow Out @$50. per fob LA....

Posting for my wrench....

Dan @ The Speed Gallery has way too many used Yoko slicks sitting in the back of his facility and asked me to offer them up @ $50. per. They all have 4-6 HC's and lots of visable tread depth. These are 2013 tires from his supported customers and himself. Sizes avaliable are : 240/640/18, 250/640/18,280/650/18, 280/680/18, 330/690/18, and 330/710/18.

Contact Dan directly at: danaspesi@gmail.com or his cell: (818) 822-5246....

what size Yoks would you run for the front on a 996 cup? I assume 280/680 on the rear?

No, those are rear sizes.

I'd run the 250/650 or 250/640. The bigger the better up front....

JR:

Bought some new OZ wheels:
8 1/2 x 18
11 x 18

I had them mounted with A6s, 245 upfront and 315 rears....no fitment issues.

Need your expert advice/opinion:

Now that I've had a happy season on the Yoko slicks on my 8s and 10s, what size slicks would work on the new 8 1/2s and 11s knowing that 245 and 315 A6s fit OK? I think I want to stay with the Yokos.

Thanks!
David

For those above with fitment questions... a 250 width is a little bit stuffed on a 8.5" width wheel. 240 is a better fit.

Rears are going to depend on your current aspect ratio, cup or street car, abs computer.... the 280/650 rear is the likely fit although you'd have to look up diameters front:rear to keep your, presumably, stock abs computer happy. The 680 big boy sidewall is a great tire re. spring, grip, and longevity but may not work with a street car based application.

Bump for my wrench....

He still has about 50 of these tires available. $50. per is a pretty awesome deal....
