Take off racing slicks inquiry

[12coBoss]

Just seeing if anyone knows of anyone selling the Pirelli take offs 305/690/19 slicks. Pirelli offers this size, but not sure if any racing series is running these. I have been getting my used slicks from usedracingtires.com for the past few years, but they do not have this size right now. I ran the Pirelli 315/705/19 a few weeks ago, but those tires are pretty tall and a tight fit. The tire slightly rubs the inner fender well when turning, and going to a shorter tire I feel will benefit with weight/power too. Currently running 19x11 square setup on a GT350, so the rim is a bit small for the 315 tires, so I would probably end up with about the same contact patch. I don't run any racing series so looking for a cheap solution if anyone is using something different, and I don't like spending a lot of money on tires as I am hard on them. Let me know if you know of anyone with these, or if you are using a different solution.

19" slicks are very difficult to come by, as you are finding out. If you want something reasonably quick but still affordable, check out the Toyo RR in 295/30-19. They would work very well all around on your car and that particular size is under $275/tire. Don't be concerned with "only" running 295s, they are wide. I used to run 295/30-18 RR's and they were a couple inches taller than 305 Pirelli DH when stacked next to each other, both unmounted.
