I had Z2/Z3 for two years, but since I was doing more track time this year I switched to Federal RS-RRs. So far they've been great - wear is comparable if not better than the Z3s. More progressive...

Well it worked, so thank you! Was still a bit of a pain in the ass to get it out, but at least it's out. I'm putting in a JDL UEL for a different sound, and that was much easier, thankfully.

As others have said, you'd want to get max camber up front. But instead of one pair of camber bolts, get two sets (for top and bottom). I was able to get -2.9 this way. Very cheap way to get better...
