Just like the title says…  
Option 1 - You have 1 or 2 Hoosiers or Hankooks that size that will hold air but are otherwize no good, and are feeling charitable, I could use them to see if I can squeeze that much rubber on my rims and under my car.

Option 2 - If you have a set that are almost gone (1 or 2 events left in them) and are willing to part with for a resonably low amount I would be interested.

Option 3 - You have a new set that are unmounted and wouldn’t mind someone else just trying on your new shoes (no driving) for a few hours. Probably the trial fit will be at Hybrid Connection… I know this is an unlikely request but it cant hurt to ask. 😃

Buy all 11, shipping was ~$11 each, so for ~$340 you have tires to last the whole season, track days, and make mistakes on…

At the very least I am sure you can run the 245s up front and 225s rear.
