Delivery in 1st Quarter 2005
I just got a response from Kumho that the new 710 sizes will be coming in the 1st quarter of 2005.
I have read that the 710 is much wider than the Ecsta 700 that it is replacing. In fact, according to some people on SCCA forums, the 205/50/15 710 is almost as wide as the 225/50/15 ecsta 700. Also, the 205/50/15 V710's are virtually the same width as the 225/45/15 Hoosier SO3's.
What are the odds that a 215/40/16 and a 245/45/17 v710 will fit an Elise considering they are much wider than their "listed" sizing suggests? If the 205/45/16 Hoosier s04s were tight is there any way that a 215/40/16 Kumho 710 will work?
Randy, what do you think?
