James - I would want a 225/265 setup....
Let us know what you can get a set of these for, James.

Marco and I paid just under $1000 for this set up last year.

Yeah I'm hoping under $1000... didn't you get V700's? The 710's are different.

Anyways, Talon Tire would come out to $1200 right now, and TireRack looks like over $1000 but not much more.

I'm hoping to get them for under a grand.

Yes and the V710 is more expensive, grippier and long lasting.

Are you sure they last longer?

Yup guys in Ottawa that were running them in regionals and ran victoracers the year before and I read a few other solo II sites, not sure about track duty though.

Consensus is they last a lot longer. And rears come in 265/45/16

The consensus among the solo-I folk here is that the V710s are definitely stickier, but fall off pretty fast whereas the Victoracers aren't as sticky, but are more consistent throughout their lifetime.

What sizes are you going to be running in the rear?? i went to the Yokohama site and they don't have anything wider than a 225 for a 16 inch rim?? are you running 17's??
