Hoosier A3SO3 Tire opinions? Options

[awd4kicks]

As you know last year I found some definite traction deficiancies on the auto-x course as well as the drag strip. With the track day coming up in April and DSMCentral SCDC in May, I'd like to take lack of traction out of the equasion For a few runs this year.

There are newer/better Hoosier tires on the market now. So this means that the A3SO3's are less expensive. Back in 2003 or so I can find some good reviews. How good are they? Good enough? Anyone have any input on this?

Kinda ironic but I was just reading one of my old issues of Sport Compact Car today (February 2004 issue). That issue covered the 2003 Ultimate Street Car Challenge and one of the cars competing that year was a '95 Eclipse GSX owned by Roy Narvaez. Roy's DSM shod with Hoosier R3SO3 tires finished second at the drag strip, first around the road coarse, and ended up finishing second overall. Not too shabby.. I'd say the tires worked out well for him.

Here is a video of John Mueller piloting the GSX to the win at the California Speedway road course...
