I always run track pads and different wheels with track tires, along with a few odds and ends thrown in, like 5-point belts. I was just curious if there are certain wheel, pad and tire brands that are popular for this car. I appreciate everyone's input. It's very helpful.
Hi temp brake fluid 1st
Then better pads
Enkie RPF1 17x9 best bang for the buck.
Go with a 200 tread wear tire for street and track. 235/40/17, Stay away from 100's or full slicks. You'll learn driving the car better with a less aggressive tire.
