Finally purchased these race tires



I got a really nice price and free delivery to my home.
Now I just have to clean my wheels and paint them.

Let us know how they work out.

In the mean time, it's time for me to buy another set of Hoosiers.

Yeah, I'm about to bite the bullet for another set of hoosiers.

Have you seen the new R3S04s. I'd like to get those but they don't have my size.

Some of us poor college students can't afford the hoosiers and have to settle for a set of kumhos. One day I will have a job where I make real money and can afford nice tires....

I'm not putting down kumhos by any means. I love the tires, I'd just like to be able to afford a set of Hoosiers without having to save for 5 weeks to do so. That's all. I beat most with my current tires so I guess I can't complain too much.

Do you know why those tires are not offered in the US? I hate to buy the Korean tires but if nobody else has the size I need, I guess they'll have to do.
