Also, do you ever take 680 to work in the morning? I see a lowered white FR-S with black wheels on my way to work almost every morning, wondering if that could be you.

I know they are not the lightest wheel, but they prob weigh around stock but can accommodate a MUCH lager tire. I think I am going to get something else for autoX once the tread wares out on the RS3s and use the grids for daily use.

That's not me on 680, I use just about every other freeway in the South Bay (17/880, 280, 101, 85, 87, and 237) daily. Those rolling shots are on 85 actaully.

Where do you autoX at?

Oh nice, I was thinking of the RPF1s for autox, but damn those grids look good. Too bad I can't afford the TE37s and have the best of both worlds!

I'll probably see you around sometime then, I take 680, 880, 237, and 101 on a daily basis.

I used to autox with the SF SCCA, in Oakland, Marina, and GGF. But I stopped going with my WRX recently and will be waiting until I get my BRZ to get back into it (should be another month til then).

Nice, I'm sure I'll see you at AutoX at some point this season then! Don't waste your time trying to run on the stock tires even if you keep everything else stock.

I've actaully never done an SCCA event even though I've done hundreds of club events both here and when I live in Michigan.
