Just as long as you're not in the Strano camp of "R-COMPS ARE THE GREATEST THING EVER! STREET TIRES ARE DANGEROUS!!"
Honestly, our cars are more fun on crappy tires than good ones. On the OEM tires, I could toss the car around all day with a smile on my face. After putting RS3s on it and changing nothing else, it went from tail-happy to dump truck... just like that. If you want to be entertained by the car, crappy tires all day every day. If you want to be competitive.... better tires are required.
Wish I had a 2nd set of wheels with the OEM tires mounted for our 24h AutoX this weekend
