AutoCross Tires for our Trucks!

[RAMviperIFFIC]

I need to get some new summer tires as my Scorps are worn out. I want to put a tire on which;

1) grips the road like glue when going straight and also in the corners
-I don't mind excessive noise
-I don't mind the "tramlining" effect of a stiff sidewall
-I don't mind low tread life
-I am open to downsizing the OD of the tire
-I would like to stick with my factory 22 inch rims
-I will use these tires daily this spring, summer and fall

2) I have based my following choices on the following;
-low UTQG rating
-large tread blocks for lateral stability
a) BFG G-Force KDW 305/40/22 UTQG = 300 W speed rated 2600lb rated
b) Toyo Proxes ST 315/30/22 UTQG = 280 Y speed rated 2100lb rated
c) Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 305/30/22 UTQG = 240 W speed rated 2100lb rated

Question; who autocrosses (tracks) there truck regularly and has found the "perfect" tire....what is it?

Thanks for all of your help and your feedback!

I still have the stock tires but will be getting new tires soon. I hope to road race my truck 3 or 4 times this summer at Portland Int. Raceway. I think I'm going to try the BFG's.

I don't think your going to get anything good for autoX for our trucks.

I think the BFG are a GREAT choice!! Thats what I would try first!

I am really pleased with my Nitto s-420's, have not autocrossed yet but I plan to soon.

I just ordered some. The lowest price I found was $263.00 or $262.00 each. Somewhere arond there. Free shipping. Had to pay sales tax because they are coming from California. Total was a hair over $1100 for all four.

Ouch!

That is a god price for a VR rated tire. Look at the Perrelli's, they are in the high $300's each.

any pics of the 305/30/22 tire mounted up?

The tread on the BFG look extremely aggressive. Thats a pretty good price. Where did you find them?

I think my next set of tires are going to be some Vredesteins. I had a few sets on my euro cars and loved them.
