I know they are kinda newish to karting. At least that’s what my closest shop said. I’ve ridden yellow mgs for the longest time now and a little bit of Vega. Anybody ride Hoosier tires for road racing I would love to hear what y’all have to say about them. Thanks for reading :)
What do you guys personally prefer? My dad and grandpa have both run on Hoosier and Goodyear, and on my grandpa's car, air in the goodyears kept bleeding out of the sidewall. (They were new tires, too) He took all of the steps carefully, and air still kept bleeding out of them. (No, we don't have beadlocks on his car, yet.) The hoosiers never had that problem, and they usually lasted longer. And overall, i just want to know what tires you guys like best for your setups.
I'm debating on getting a new tire for my XR, and i really want a treaded tire. I've looked at the two tires, so i was just wondering which one would be best, for Range, durability, carvability and road noise? Thanks in advance.
Is anybody selling FSAE Hoosier tires for size 18.0x6.0/10 for either LCO or R25B compound? Due to the supply chain shortages, there is about a month backorder from the Hoosier supplier.
So I'm about to pick up a Pint X soon and I plan on upgrading the tire for some winter commuting. I know Craft and Ride has this tire for sale on their site but their shipping estimate is end of January which gets rid of at least two months of usability for me. So I think I found the same tire for sale on Hoosier's Canadian distributor, but I'm not entirely certain is the same thing because the dimensions are worded differently. So I'm hoping for some confirmation on this because the tire is final sale. Thanks in advance!
Has anybody had any luck finding 205/470 R13 tiers. Any information would be very helpful.
Thanks
Looking into the Hoosier street tire and I have heard it doesn’t last as long as most other tires. Does anyone have experience riding on one that can give an estimate how long it lasts? I ride only on asphalt and enjoy carving at moderate speeds.
Has anyone installed a Hoosier treaded tire and used the original PSI and felt your board felt more concave. My original PSI was 20. What was your original PSI and what did you end up at?
My Nimbus came in the mail today and I won’t have a chance to mount it for the next few days, but I am quite curious if my stock FM fender will fit with it. (I have my doubts) Again, I’m on a pint, and I’m aware that a few cuts and modifications are needed to make it fit but I do wanna know if I can still go trail riding with a fender. If one of you share my situation, please, do tell!
Last time I noticed tampo on tires was Walmart Boulevard 18 Camaro with Hoosier
Hey! I am writing this post on behalf of my PUT Motorsport team (Poland). We wanna sell couple of sets (wets and drys) of practically new, never used tires from Hoosier (they still have vent spews indicating they are like brand new). We hoped we would use them one day but now we know its not gonna happen. We also have OZ Formula Student Magnesium 4H wheels for sale so hit me up if you are interested! At least we can sell it all for a fair price to some FS team.

6x 18.0x6.0-10 (wets)
4x 21.0X6.5-13 (wets)
3x 20.0X7.5-13 (drys)
5x 20.5X7.0-13 (drys)
Write to me if you and your team are interested for more information (photos, manufacture date etc.)
So after much convincing my brother finally switched his Vega out for a Hoosier whisper about a month ago. Last night when he was riding he ran over some glass he didn't see and it nicked the tire enough to cause a slow leak the ended up in him having to walk home. He had half a bottle of the armadilloz black tire slime inside at the time but it didn't do anything in the moment. We added another 1/4 a bottle and left the leak facing down so that gravity would let the slime fill the hole. This morning it's still holding it's PSI which is promising but it's leaking quite a bit and I'm afraid he'll have a blowout if he has any hard landings. Is there any way to permanently fix this without having to get a new tire? This one in particular was really expensive and he hasn't been sold that it was worth it.
How does this tire perform on the street? Is it a downgrade from the stock Vega, same or better? I’d like better off road grip, but most of my miles are on pavement so I don’t want to downgrade my street performance.
