I won these at a local Pirelli sponsored PCA event. These are Pirelli's latest and greatest DOT approved track tires (like an MPSC, probably faster). 235 and 295 in 18 inch.

Two problems: My suspension cannot accomodate the alignment required to properly run R-comp tires. And I need to drive my car to and from track events, including in the rain. Which seems to be all the time around here.

Spoke to the tire shop sponsors (Touchette), and they are totally on board with me selling the tires privately so I can turn around and buy a set of street/DE tires that fit my 993. Great guys.

Tires are well over $1,800 CAD, I would like $1,400 for the set. This deal will make most sense to a local(ish) buyer avoiding shipping. Montreal, Ottawa, GTA, Vermont, NY, etc.

Please PM me if interested.

Best,

Matt

Mike, there are a few threads. I run them on my 2001 RGT (Mk1 GT3), and I am very happy with them. Recommended pressure is 30 hot. They warm up very quickly, have a lot of grip, and are very predictable. The only downside is that they wear out faster than less sticky tires, but, that trade-off is fine with me.
