Just got them & my first track day is next Saturday night...so I can let you know then. But what I've read from others who track more frequently, they are a great track/road tire.

Great Car!

Did you have the JRZ set up and Dinan/Brembo brakes before you switched over? I have an 02 with the S3-R package and I would like to get some decent track tires. Currently I'm running Yokohoma Advans as they were the only decent tire that I could find for the huge wheels that Dinan puts on the car (F-275 30/19, R-285 30/19). Do you know of any other wheel set up that will fit over the huge brake rotors that Dinan put on the car?

Thanks,

Matt

Matt...I never went the Dinan wheel or Dinan/Brembo at all. I went right away to the StopTech BBK because (I know this is a big dispute) StopTechs are better and cheaper! I did have the JRZ suspension set-up though before I went to the TC Kline D/A KONI suspension.

I think anyone who tracks will tell you to go 18" wheel, but I don't know about fitment to your brakes.
