Hey guys, looking forward to getting on the track burning some rubber. Does anybody have any recommendations for places to get new wheels? I'm about ready to get some new shoes. Still running the crappy Kendas.

No. Shockingly I have seen very good track performance and mountain performance on stock wheels and tires. Jdin did well for one.

Jdin is a pretty talented driver - he could manage to show us all up on used junkyard tires.

So... kendas? Lol
One of the main problems I have is warming them up, Kendas are summer tires and driving in the winter is sketchy at best. And in the rain they are really dangerous. Gonna need something with a bit more grip

I tried Tire Rack but when I select the Polaris Slingshot, no results are returned.

If you know what tire you want you can just search by size.
@Webweaver1021 I can surprisingly (to me) say the stock Kendas do pretty well at the track. I only had 500 miles, from the drive to the track, on my Sling last track day. It was my first time to any track and I was keeping up with almost everybody and even passing Slings and T-rex knock-offs.
I now have Nitto 555's up front and a 555 G2 in the rear. Though the stock tires did well, I know from my first Sling that the Nittos are softer riding, more quiet, more stabilizing and more grippy. I believe other tires may have a slight edge on grip, wet weather, cold weather... But those cost more(some even double). Being a "bang for the buck", I went Nitto.
I got them from Discount Tire. They will price match if you find them cheaper online.

I have been running these with great success g-Force Sport COMP-2 | BFGoodrich Tires
@MACAWS your comp-2's were up there on my list. They get great reviews and the price is good. They only go 285 wide and I wanted 305 on 20's. If I had the stock rims on, I very well could be sporting BF COMP 2s.
That is the issue I ran into with the Nittos and the new Coopers G's
I am running stock rimes and could not get the same tire on all 3 points
The BFG are great but I eat a back tire about every 3K - ya think it could maybe be my driving style or lack of it. I am sure if I was more conservative they would lest longer. But over all I am very happy
G2's here... hopefully the actually get put on the Sling today!

Ok I'll look into those. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks @WOLF, these are great tips. I forgot that ties do impact ride comfort as well. I'm sure the wifey will appreciate a more comfortable ride. So now I have at least two reasons to upgrade.

Yea, I'll try searching by size. I really like the 305/20 on the rear. I know the wider the tire, the poorly they perform in rain so I'll have to choose something that is rated fairly high in rain to offset it.
