Kumho probably isn't making the other tire sizes in the ACR compound because it clearly isn't a 200TW. That's the real reason most competition groups are excluding them. They are the ultimate 200TW cheater tires. The tread depth/size availability is just the politically correct way of excluding them. |

You think tires like the RE71R and A052 are really any different in the mentality you state? This is and has been the big topic with these tires* for the past few years in the autox scene... The A052 basically went through the near-exact exercise: Yokohama took one of their "streetable track tires" that could meet the 200tw "rating", making a little adjustment to the compound, increasing tread depth and keeping essentially the same tread pattern. Pre-2019 A052 "Streetable Track Tire" TW: 200 TD: 6/32" TP: https://www.tirerack.com/images/tire...pdp124crop.jpg 2019+ A052 "Extreme Performance Tire" TW: 200 TD: 7/32" TP: https://www.tirerack.com/images/tire...pdp124crop.jpg ACR V720 "Streetable Track Tire" TW: 200 TD: 6/32" TP: https://www.tirerack.com/images/tire...pdp124crop.jpg Mainstreme (post ARC) V720 "Extreme Performance Tire" TW: 200 TD: 8/32" TP: https://www.tirerack.com/images/tire...pdp124crop.jpg ACR V720 version + 7/32" + more sizes... why not? Kumho essentially dug themselves into a very specific corner (regional-level autox) with their mainstream V720. *"these tires" = the recent top "extreme performance tires" |

Isn't the Yokohama under review for being legal? |

The Yokohamas were under some review, but last I read (end of last month), the case has been dropped. |
I also saw the pirelli corsa pcz4 305 19a for dirt cheap
