^I run these Pirelli's in 305/245 profile (take-offs). They are great tires.

Is that on stock oem size wheels? Any idea how many hc's to the point it's car control on ice? How much for new we're looking at. Will try some this season. Thanks. Mike

Which 305....there are 3 of them. I'm assuming not the 680 but are you running the 660 or the 645?

Default Tire Rotation

After trying hair spray and generally getting frustrated with tire rotation I was lucky enough to speak to Carl at Bob Woodman Tire when ordering a set of Yoke slicks. Carl told me to have the inside of the rims bead blasted. Bingo. I ran a set of hoosiers at VIR. No rotation for 12 sessions!! No vibration.

Wheels are CCW's, try it.

Cheers

They don't make them in the stock GT3 sizes. However, 245/40-18 front and 305/30-18 rear will work just fine.

Cheers.
