![]() The SSR Professor MS3 18x8.0J +37 Front and 18x9.0J +37 with Falken FK453 225/40-18 all around makes for a nice stylish street wheel/tire combination not to make it overly tenacious on grip, or harsh on FR-S's modest power ranges, riding very comfortably and quietly, but retaining every character or response and feedback as summer street compound/construction. It's an excellent way to add a bit more grip for your tastes. A tire for those who still drive mostly in the streets combining the latest tire technology and balance of comfort, quiet, lasting, consistent, and predictable, mild-character performance tire with highly controllable rise and falloff of grip levels to make it safe and sound for cars like the FR-S. It's a bit heavier than the now discontinued, SSR Type C-RS I was using up to this point, but the darty, grippy, hard-core and wonderful, Falken RT615K is now reserved for the raceway. Saving the precious rubber for the hard-driving duties, and preventing the heat-cycle deterioration of race compounds. ![]() Scion FRS by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() OEM Audio+ Reference 400 in white by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() Scion FRS by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() On my Driveway by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr Same wheels on Ryan's Blue FR-S with Hotchkis down springs. ![]() 86 Fest 2012 - CA Speedway by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr Same wheels on Ryan's Blue FR-S with Hotchkis down springs. ![]() Tanabe USA Garage Sale/ Car Meet by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() Tanabe USA Garage Sale/ Car Meet by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() Cargo of my FRS today... by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() On my Driveway by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr ![]() 194438_435794559791095_1045596460_o by Moto@Club4AG, on Flickr Racing still done on appropriate Type C and Falken RT615K
