They keep Michelin slicks in stock and getting 10% discount and not having to deal with shipping (if you're in LA) is pretty nice!

There's a place near Road America that sells slick take-offs -- typically used for a few laps to qualify and then removed. They're dirt cheap even if I count the gas it takes to drive there and back.

The only downside is that the availability of various sizes/brands is all over the place, so you just have to keep checking and jump on the first set you find.
