Tires Goodyear or Laufenn
Good Year Nordics from Canadian Tire. I loved them, good price, great in slush and deep snow, and Can Tire has a pretty good tire warranty.
I've had Goodyear Assurance before but I had Comfort Tread not the fuel saver ones. I would buy again, they were quiet, good traction, stayed round, held air, etc.
My guess would be that NASCAR tires are on the very hard end of the F1 tyre spectrum with the cornering loads/weight that NASCAR has in comparison.
Find the Goodyear trailer at the track. After the race sometimes the tire guys will sell you one over the fence. Got one a few years ago for $5 at Milwaukee.
If you just want a used racing tire, (maybe Goodyear, maybe not), check out your local short track. The one's I've been to usually have piles of them laying around.
Goodyear was selling the "Support Our Troops" tires from Charlotte at the june michigan race last year for $20.
R Wagon, studded 17" Good Year Ultra Grip Ice Arctic. I'll say no more..
I have a st of Laufenns on my old beater Outback. So far, they seem to be ok for routine commuting. Are they performance tires? Heck no, but they do what I need them to do on dry roads and wet ones.
Asymmetric 2's, not the A/S version. I've driven the A/S version in rain and was underwhelmed with those too. At least in heavy rain, I wouldn't want them--that's based on only one experience, but they were at least 8/32's and were not impressive.
I have Eagle F1's on my 986 and am totally underwhelmed.
