15" Avon CR6ZZ compared to 17" performance tires

[Voyager]

I would think any 7 year old tire would spin…

Can’t answer your question directly, but I’m running 15 inch wheels and intend to go with Avons or BBs as my next tire. Personally, I’m willing to sacrifice some ultimate grip to retain more authenticity. If I tracked my car, I might have a different answer.

Based on your input of use with the question you will spend a fair amount of money and see zero practical difference.
If you track the car and are good enough, expect better corner times. That does'nt sound like your objective. This is why modern supercars with 19"-20" wheels will do the same thing with traction control switched off.

I run the Avons with a 640 HP ERA. I can say it's almost impossible to break them loose on hard acceleration and they are very predictable and comfortable. I really like the look of 15" tires in general and the Avons in particular.

There's few slam dunks in this hobby.
You'll be happy with the Avons.

Well, Bill has Avons....
