Sorry It is east to forget. How small wheel to wheel racing is.
The American Sedan SCCA rule book. Calls out a maximum wheel size. For the Full Preparation cars. No larger than 17" x 8" wide. With a front brake rotor no more than 12.3" O.D. x 1.25 thick.
If you choose to go with the limited Preparation class.
You may use the larger factory Rims and larger Factory brakes. With an intake restrictor on your all factory Coyote engine.

I've heard from many that have used these tires and they are long-lasting on the track.
I think you are about right on the percentage of wear.
I paid $450
I priced around and the lowest price I could find new was $1050

So I had a little time today and I got the NT01s mounted on my 18 x 9.5 forged wheels. I didn't do the TPMS ($75 eBay), track day wheels. I had them road force test them ($100 out the door). Track days in September. Should be cooler by then.

I went for a test drive, slowing down to stop and I heard what sounded like a rubbing noise. Pulled over to check and nothing was rubbing??
Turns out the tires are quite noisy, like a truck with off road mudders. Not a street tire for sure! **** they are grippy though!
