I hope it's better than the AI one.

 

Will try if contigency is good. Any specs of height and tread width etc.. on those sizes??

 

I run a 285/645/18 and a 305 on occasion so was curious if those Toyo's are 25.6-.7 tall and about 10-11 inches tread width

What was the AI one?

 

You can get the specs by doing a little math..

 

Ex. 240/640R18 ----- 240/25.4 = 9.65 640/25.4 = 25.2 R18"

 

In your case 285/650R18 ------ 285/25.4 = 11.22 650/25.4 = 25.59 R18"

Will be interesting to see especially now that hoosier changed there contigency levels.

 

IIRC it was only 3 cars in class to qualify, but only 1 tire to the winner. Correct?

That was last year. This year, if you only have 3 cars in a class... noone gets a tire.
