Bring it on. I'll happily use 295 rears on my GT3 for $800 savings a set. It's not exactly been lacking in rear traction that I've noticed in any case..,
Exactly. Given my experience with the GT4, I know it won't be a problem/make a difference to drop down to 295
Are you still running the DSC Sport???
Impressions?
Yes, but I haven't been back to the track since my last post on it. Will return to Sonoma this Sunday and Laguna 8/6. DSC will be left in the entire time to see if it improves tire wear.
Wear is about the same. Grip is about the same. However:
.......... Some of my fastest laps are 8-9 laps into the session, which never happens with cup2 or NT01 for me........
4) 1/2 the price of cup2
5) Did I mention it's 1/2 the price of cup2? I don't drive the GT3 much anymore because I'm tired of paying $2k for a set of tires that only last 3-4 days.

Hopefully the savings are the same in NZ! And hopefully the same difference in price in OEM sizes too.
Joe... Do they take some time to warm up? Typically we only do 7-8 laps per session so I'd hate to never get them to their best.

These aren't the cruddy trofeoR tires. I hate those tires with a passion. I do one easy lap and then let it rip. The tires seem to do better with higher pressures. I've been running 34/35 psi hot. I start 27psi cold.
