Default Where do racers buy Hoosier R7s?

The only place I can find Hoosier R7 tires that fit my F car (245/35r18 and 275/35r18) is Bob Woodman tires. Is there no other seller online?

Thanks for the help?

Awesome! Thanks to both of you. Sadly I see the price I was getting is what it is.


Question: How did you get the 18 inch size to appear?

I did search tire rack, but it didn't show up when I put in the tire size.

EDIT: disregard . . . it's working now . . . must have typed in an error of somekind


Thanks again.

I buy all mine from Damon at Tire Rack. He kindly ships them right to the shop for me. As they use to say on TV: no fuss, no muss, no cleanup (just an empty checking account).

Be be very careful when selecting R7 sizes!! Many folks have ordered R7s in the same size as R6 and encountered tire rub. I bought the same size on the same wheels on the same car and they rubbed BIG TIME and had to sell them at a loss. But I was already pushing the envelope as far as offset and clearance.

One size smaller usually works ok.
