Keanu Reeves Competes in GR Cup

Thought this was pretty cool. Didn't expect John Wick racing these cars.

Wheels: If you didn't know, you couldn't tell the difference. My 18x9.5s are actually lighter than the stock 18x7.5.

Just to throw in speculation, the last model year of the 1st gen only offered Limited trim (AFAIK when I was looking to buy mine back in 2020, and ended up getting a used Premium because of that)....

Really happy with the RCE SS2s on the BRZ. Also really happy with Xidas on the MX-5! Biggest difference is the Xidas are somewhat smooover on the street. But the RCE SS2s are also very streetable...

A couple of my sx2’s required quite a bit of weight to get balanced. I have one that required no weights though, ironically on the wheel that I thought I had bent.

I stepped up from summer performance tires(Indy500 and MPSS) to the RT615k+ as my starter 200TW tire this year. 13 total track days and I run in High Inter/Low Advanced. I've done 2k street miles, 4...

GT Radial SX2. Lasts forever. Super consistent grip. Great communication, and lower grip to always dance around that limit.

A full set of tires fits in the back of the car along with tools, and a suitcase. I’d recommend a second set of wheels and tires. Then you can have both and run what conditions require.

Ended up driving it finally.

The entry now has a touch of oversteer. But mid corner and exit we cleaned it up and now it’s borderline neutral. Felt a lot better than the 7k square setup.

Akshually...

Wheel rate (what matters) is spring rate x motion ratio *squared*, so with 9 kg/mm springs in back, wheel rate is 9 kg/mm * (0.75)^2 = 5 kg/mm
