Thought this would be interesting to share. 225/40/17 Hoosier R7 is just marginally wider then 255/40/17 Maxxis RC1. Also, the R7 is 5lbs lighter! That is a huge loss in unsprung weight.

225 hoosier is made in the same mold as 245... If you take a look at the specs a hoosier 255 is a huge jump from a 245!
