Which Tires Would U Recommend

I run the Lexani LX Twenty tires all around.
Switched to American Racing Wheels last year, and increased the front diameter so I'm running 20" all around.
12" wheel on the back to plant a 345 tire to the pavement. Increased the front wheel to 9" width to accommodate a 275 or something like that.
Big rubber on the pavement for me, for the reason everyone knows.................
I run HARD, and those that have tried to stay with me on the twistys know this, and usually turn around and go home in tears!!
I am almost Folklore in the Slingshot community.
On The Dragon last year, I rode at a wicked fast speed that even the photographers pics were only a blurr.
And that was in the rain....freezing rain!
So tires??..... I know shit!

I've been running Lexanitwenty's for probably 6 years. Very happy with them. I am not a aggressive driver. Buy them online at cheapest price I can find then just take them to the tire store to be mounted.

Lexanitwenty's👍

Mitch at Rev Dynamics will powder coat you some nice wheels and wrap them with Lexani Twenty's.
These are mine that he did
Top notch work

In my local area, from several different dealers, the Toyota Proxxes 888's and SL's, General G-Max, Goodyear Eagles, are not available. I think some Yokohama are. The Continental Extreme Contact Sport isn't either, but the Continental Extreme Contact DWS+06 is around 450 out the door...
A Lexani, not sure which flavor, is available out the door under 3...
Thoughts?
If you go to one of the national dealers that sell online, like Discount Tire, you should be able to order from their inventory and have them shipped to your closest local shop for installation. That's what I did when I bought the General.

bought my last Lexanitwentys from early world.

Not a run flat... can't remember if is Lexanitwenty is.
-
Simple Tire is another place to order tires. I have ordered the last 6 tires from them to be shipped to my home.
-
simple tire link this is for my 305 rear tire bigger than stock
-
Would run flats have been preferred?
They were a few of them available...
Well if you don't want to get stuck on the road. yes. But wear may be less and ride alittle harsher due to stiff sudewalls.
-
I carry a tire repair kit and 12v pump just in case I get a flat in the middle of nowhere. I doubt many are running run flats.
