Hello,
I have a replica Lola T70 that is rarely used and only driven on the street. I have been looking to replace the tires with something more appropriate for the car and found a great deal on a new set of Hoosier Vintage T.D.S tires. The model numbers are 44286 and 44316. I am a college student and I am trying to keep the Lola running on a very limited budget. There are few inexpensive tire options in these sizes so I am drawn to the option of using these racing tires.
What would be the downsides of using a tire like this? I assume that they wont last long but I drive the car only a few hundred miles a year.
Any advice is appreciated and if this is a stupid idea feel free to say so.
