My opinion is that the A6 is too soft for open time trials where you are running many laps. They are good for clubs that do a single timed lap or a couple of laps, they will peak on the first lap and start to fall away in lap time. If I were to run Hoosiers I would run the harder compound R6.

Kuhmo V710 doesn't make a 18" 275, it is a 285.

No one I've talked to likes the R1's, they just don't have the grip of the top contenders.

The complaint about the Z214's is that they heat cycle out too quickly, where as the R6's and 710's you can run until they cord without the tire getting much slower.
