Todd aka MINIRACER51 should be able to tell you what tires those are. This certainly makes me proud to be an Accord owner.

No prob Todd.

Any reason for the left rear to be a different size? Does it help in turning in the ovals?

Yea stagger on the rear helps alot, Now on the front if u do it on the accord it seems to want to spin the left front tire while in the turns, so i just run it strait up, but in the escorts stagger on the rear and the front works real well.

Now I know the NASCAR guys adjust caster and camber for the ovals. Do you guys need to do that, or does using a different tire just help like the sprint cars?
