Nope ... an R6 is a road race tire. They are meant to have a limited number of heat cycles. They are not designed to be constantly heat cycled. Once they are heat cycled out they become hard and are worthless.

Sorry, but nope again ... A6's are autocross tires. It is the same principle, but, an A6 is designed to heat very, very quickly ... you don't get an oppurtunity to heat your tires in an autocross event like you are able to in a road race. An A6 and an R6 are not interchangable either. An R6 is not made to heat quickly so would not be good in an autocross event, but, are made to withstand long heat cycles as in a road race where an A6 would "go away" very quickly in a road race because they are designed to sustain much shorter heat cycles, but heat quickly.
I hate to blow up your thread, but I would hate to see a member pay money for something he will not be able to use appropriately. Basically, you have a used set of road race tires ... it is as simple as that.

Just because you ran them a certain way doesn't mean that's the way they are supposed to be used... you could run full blown slicks on the street but does that mean you are supposed to?
I'm on the same page as Brian, not trying to blow u up but u need to accurately describe what these really are. I was interested in buying them until I read that info. This shouldn't hurt your chances of selling them, but you should repost or something with accurate info on what they are and what they're used for. These are not street tires.
