I went 255 RS3 V1 -> 255 ZII -> 245 RS3.
Due to the softer sidewall of the V2 compared to the other 2 sets its not that noticeable with them on a 9" wheel. I spray the V2's between runs and the pressures are the same about as what I ran on the V1's. They are great so far, though they don't like to get hot like the old ones which is kinda depressing if you want to do a track session.

ZII SS were around $1150 mounted taxes in locally, RS3's were $810. I needed them ASAP so ordering from tirerack wasn't an option.

I use 1010tires usually and they are currently $15 a tire difference.

Don't forget there will probably be more tires added to the equation next year. 200 TW R1R successor, rumors of a Rival successor, etc.

Makes me glad to live in a region that doesn't really get going until April, gives others time to do the testing.

Our first event this year was April 26th, and it was snowing

I vote 245-40-17 for size. Hankook RS3 V2 will have my money until something proves to be better.

Wasn't there a female rally driver who was missing oversteer driving your car? Was this just an outlier or have you changed the set-up since?

Back to toe alignment: Do you know what screw turn/angle leads to what toe change? E.g. 1/2 turn in the front or rear delivers 0.05 toe change per wheel?

Completely changed... spring rates, ride height and rebound/compression.. the rear is an eccentric so its limited on change..because it can rotate 360 degrees.. mine is close to the max on the lobe..

Some stuff hitched a ride home with me after the last event of the season...

Racer-x. I have them as well, no complaints. @xDanger_208x

conedodging · 10-14-2014, 11:24 AM

Yup, Racer-x. I was told they're useful because you can do an axle swap without having to remove them.

autoXracer · 10-24-2014, 12:09 AM

What's a good amount of REAR camber? I currently don't have adjustable rear camber but have SPC arms to install.

Currently running RS-3 V2 245/40-17's
Front -3.3 camber, 6.5 caster, 1/16 total toe out
Rear -2.2/2.5 camber, 1/8 total toe in (uneven left/right since I don't have adjustable camber)
