Hoosier Release new Formula FSAE tyre size

Formula Student Team

FSUK Supporting partners Hoosier announce a new FSAE tyre available for all teams.

LAKEVILLE, IN – The long anticipated new FSAE tire has arrived and is available to purchase through Hoosier’s Distributor Network.

This new tire will be available with a 16” diameter and two tread widths to choose from – a 6.0” and 7.5” wide.

Also, due to the popularity of our Little Car Asphalt Compound (LCO) Tread Compound, both sizes will be available in this softer LCO compound as well as our track tested R25B circuit racing compound.

Hoosier Tire is also working on releasing a new 16” wet tire in the Spring of 2018. These tires will be part of the next FSAE Tire Testing Consortium (TTC) test in June of 2018.

Technical specifications are as follows:

Item # Tire Size Tread Width OD Circ. Rec. Rim Measured Rim Section Width Weight
43070 16.0 x 6.0-10 6.0" 16.3" 51.2" 5-6" 6.0" 6.9" 7 lbs
