The cheapest Ive found for the HTR 200 , 205/65R/15 is $62 ea. Thats at www.tirerack.com
Are you running them on a Pony Stock? If you are running at Spartan Speedway, the max size you can run is 195/70R. These sell for $51 ea.

John,
He is running them on a Daytona that will be raced at Whittemore the last I knew. It's my old Daytona He is gonna have a blast running that thing, I know Art and Todd Jr and everyone else did.
Nick,
Go online to Tire Rack and print out their price. Take that to Belle Tire or Discount Tire and they should price match them. You will need to add the price of freight on to the tires.
Have someone shave the tread down about half or more and the Sumo's will last and hold excellent.
I pay the extra money for Tire Rack to heet cycle the fronts and feel it is well worth it, they last even longer.
Good luck

Getting closer on my Neon. With Springport/Mid Michigan opening the rules to allow the FWD cars to compete with the RWD Mustangs, I needed more motor than my stock one I ran last year.
My son is building me a dual cammer that is a little hotter for this year to start with. It will not be as strong as we would like it to be as we are a little lite on $$. Just a hot set of cams and a good header to start with.
As the season goes on hopefully I will have the money to build a good big motor for my car and put the good ( high $$ ) suspension under it too.
We will just go and have fun and see what happens. For me it is all about having fun this year, if I can do some winning that is even better.
The Cutlass is on hold for now. The new owner ( a teammate ) is building a FWD to run this year and if he does something with the Cutlass I will be sure and get some pictures and let you know.
Thanks
