Like I said, even on a Jetta this tire did .80g. Given that a lowered/stiffened WRX on RE92 could better its skippad by .05, I reasonably expect the BRZ to be capable of .90g on the skidpad with these tires, which would be adequate for most people. I wouldn't be surprised it could do more, given that the objective was 1.0g.

And honestly, anyone who brings up 'Prius' tires is probably trolling.
