Rear: 285/40-17"
setup?
yes, last season I ran the RT615's. They were good to get used to on a new car setup, but their major downside was not being able to hold/control heat properly. The first few sessions of each track day were my fastest, towards the end of the day my tires would grease up and it would be a battle between me and controlling the car. Still a good learning experience though.

This upcoming season, and I stress season because i live in chicago. I am planning on running Kumho XS's. Mainly due to their previous history with their R-Comp tires and their good sizing that's available for the 17inch. Also 180 u.t.q.g is still considered a competitive rating for a street tire. If anyone has any other suggestions, im more than willing to try another tire?
