Hoosier C30 Compound

[james schaechter]

The only 9 inch PBR I have seen is only 28? tall and 88 rollout. What size were your PBR?s?

I ran some 13.5 x 31 PBRs for years for an everyday slick on my Cavalier LT1 stick car. When I took them off last fall at Vegas, they had 193 runs on them and looked great! The date code was from 2017 and I bought them in 2018. I gave them to a local bracket guy?

They were 9 lbs each heavier than a standard radial but you cannot wear them out!

I weighed the tire & rim configuration between my M/T PBRs/double bead lock rims to the FSS tires/Weld no beadlock rims. There's a total difference of 24 lbs. weight savings.

Hopefully they work good enough to use for the Spring Fling Million in Apr. if I decide to enter.

Our primary tire is a 29.5 x 10.5 PBR, it has a 94" RO & the width is only 10". I get an easy 150 runs out of them & they're still working great when I change them out.

When I first started running radials many...many moons ago. I started with a Hoosier 30 x 9 C06 lightweight & got an easy 150 runs out of them. I've ran all the different model 9" Hoosiers. They're great tires, but the PBRs edge them out slightly for bracket racing.
