GT Radial SX2 is classed as a 220TW tire (confirmed by GT Radial), therefore it will be allocated a -1 point. Personally, I have used the SX2 and HPY tires extensively with a variety of modifications and have extensive experience on a variety of 100-300TW tires (TD and lower treadwear is straight up baller territory anyways). The tires have their own characteristics and require some delicate modifications to extract the most out of the tire. If you have any questions on brake and suspension setup, we recommend you contact us for support on getting yourself ready for the 2018 season.
Finally, the 86CUP committee is working with GT Radial on 2018 details. Once everything is set in stone, an official announcement will be made.
Thanks,

Thanks. Which "delicate modifications" are you referring to above? I was recommended by @
CSG Mike to get a full set of SPL arms, I'm assuming camber is necessary to fully exploit these tires?
I'm actually considering holding off on heavy modifications this year to keep the budget small, would camber bolts + alignment be adequate in the interim?
Thanks
