What tires to use for Autocross

Its all ABOOT the SYTY eh
Hey guys..... What tires/wheel is best to run for the autocross? I have my stock rims with Bridgestone Potenza RE750 in stock size. And I have 18" z06 repical wheels, front 9.5 wide and rear 10.5" with 275/40?/r18 and 315/35/r18. Which is better? I don't want to bring both sets so I will put on the set that works best and use them for the weekend.

Thanks in advance.:tup:

you'll probably get better traction with your wider tires, but youd be suprised what the stock size will do for you. You will feather your tread a bit...so maybe pick your least favorite set...

The difference for someone not doing it often be minimal. The extra wide rear might make the understeer our trucks have worse, but again for a hobby guy you may not notice.

I do agree bring the set you have least attachment too.

If you want to buy new tires, BFG Rival is a new tire designed just for this and road driving.
