Default Tire thread!


Searched but didnt find a tirethread.
i guess the most common tires the .1 gt3 is delivered with is mpsc2.
im wondering, what is the name of this michelin tire? Available w thread? Streetlegal? Only seen it on cupcars, and they look great imo! They feel sticky as hell and i understand not practical for mileage. But is it possible?

I took the picture from PEC (Atlanta I think) isn't this a gt3?
Im quite sure I've seen gt3 rs run on 19" cup wheels?

Will it not work with this tire on gt3/rs or why is it no go?
Anyone knows the treadwear on these tires?

I think Cup wheels are 18" and need Cup brake calipers to fit...
