The fronts are 245/40/18, the rears are 315/30/18. My car had -2.7 deg of front camber and -2.5 deg of rear camber when I used these tires and I didn’t have any rubbing - maybe a very tiny touch at full steering lock on the fronts, but not even perceptible.
These tires have three track days in total on them (10 total heat cycles), driven on a very smooth track. The grooves are still there all the way across the face of the tread, as you can see in the pictures below. I’m told these tires are good for 40-50 heat cycles on a GT3 and I can believe it. The rubber is still soft to a fingernail poke.
I found another tire that I prefer, so that’s while I’m selling these. I’d like to get $450 for the set, which is less than half what you’d pay for a new set. Buyer pays shipping. If any local buyer wants to come pick them up, I’ll discount them a bit more.

There are four street trips/heat cycles on these tires: two trips to the track, and two trips home, a total of maybe 50 street miles and four street heat cycles (in addition to the 10 heat cycles mentioned in the ad). The first time I used these tires, I mounted them at the track, did two sessions/heat cycles on track, and then dismounted them at the track, letting them sit for a couple weeks before using them again. Next two track usages, I drove them to and from the track, which is about 12 miles from home.
