If you run used tires get ahold of some USAC teams the season starts in February that should get some supply of used ones on the market.
So if one side rolls out a little smaller as you say how are you going to get the stagger you want and or need without changing something??

We do have tires we planned on using to start the season at our local tracks, if they do not go with these rules we should be ok as we only run a handfull of U.S.A.C. shows.

It is my opinion that this is going to cost racers money one way or another it is also my opinion that rules are not there to help low budget teams, just my opinion and as I have been told before what do I know.
