I heard the 13" Sumitomo HTR200 tires are no longer being made, so does anyone out there know of any new ones floating around?

I race a gen 1 in Lemons and the HTR200's have worked well, but for the last race we couldn't find any so we ran Cooper Cobras...they aren't quite as good to say the least. lol

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

They are available apparently, but only if you want to pay $100.00 each, which is highway robbery.

Thanks, ended up biting the bullet with the $94.00 Sumitomos since it's easier than buying new wheels (I have 12 of the 13" wheels). For the Lemons racing, can't run anything softer than 190, so racing tires are out and to be honest, the car is pretty fun on these hard, soft sidewall bricks.

Maybe next season we will ditch all our 13" wheels and buy something else.

Yeah, I've been autocrossing them for six years now. Changing from those to Hankook race rubber will be a pretty dramatic difference, I think.
