Mixing AutoX tires...

One more question...

When I had America's tire try to mount the V710s(https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66533), they tossed 2 of the old tires(Hoosier A3S03's) because they were showing cord on the outside edge.

So.. We have an event this Sunday and I was planning to run the 2 good Hoosiers on the front and the runflats on the rear. Unfortunately, in the time we have between now and Sunday, I don't have time to get another set of tires.

So.. Any reason not to run this setup this weekend? I figure the runflats'll allow the rear to rotate easier if nothing else.

If it helps.. Our venue is not very big, so our courses tend to be fairly tight, mostly 1st gear and a little bit of 2nd gear, so there won't be any fast sweepers or anything.

Thanks!

Ditto....if the speeds are relatively low (1-2 gear), it should be OK.

We have one site we visit in New England that requires a slow and tight course by design, and I often run the Kumho Victracers up front, and leave my Azeni's on back.
