    Looking for a new set of track tires as mine bit the dust after VIR last week. Considering A048's as I really liked my A032's. Any advice/experience?

    Thanks,

    Kelly

    I've had a set, they are very very nice, they also last really well considering how sticky they are.

    Thanks for the response...did you run the medium compound? Also, do you recommend shaving or is that not necessary given these are comp tires?

    Thanks again!

    I just drove on them this weekend @ Road Atlanta and was very happy. Give me a ring and we can talk about what sizes you need.
