Close, $190... But if your Buying for the Solo V your still going to have better results with the C91 Hankook F200 since the Hoosier autocross radial is built to hold a full size car and will not work as well for a formula car application. the Hankook is only $240 and a MUCH stickier compound. which going into winter you'll appreicate. remember the radial autocross compound is similar to an R35 compound.

Plus the F200 is 9.8 tread width, where the hoosier is only 9.5" Hoosier has a similar slick but like we discussed the hankook is the tiniest bit better,

Hoosier DOES have a boatload of discontinued 13" slicks for $70 and up

I can't sell them to you but they are all listed here

hopefully I'll be at a roadrace soon and get some more slicks, but who knows when that will be.

Just let me know! Those C91 compound Hankooks are great. I am doing my best to wear them out. I would love to pick up a spare set or two.
