Hey Bill,

I'm interested to see what you think of the new Z2 over the RS-3. I'm on my 2nd set already (245/40 on 17x9) because I've already got 21K miles on the car and about 50 AutoX events between me, my brother co-driving, and letting all my other freinds try the car.

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna step-up to 255 as well so I'm curious if you can feel any power loss due to taller tire/gearing? Looks like your adding some bolt-ons which will swallow that up anyway.

Mee too.. looking forward to giving a good concise evaluation.. I will be doing test and tune on Friday with Mike King, codriver and we will be testing both the RS3's *with over 100 runs on them vs. Brand New Z2's.. the only miles that the Z2's will have is the drive down miles from Wisconsin to Ga. since I predict they will do WAY better in the wet.. hopefully the weather cooperates.. on my drive down. Wish somebody would make a hitch for the Twins..that way I could just pull a small tire trailer. My friend is getting the BFG's so we are going to do some private testing with those. The Bridgestone RE11 A's are supposed to hit also here in the next couple of weeks.. I truly anticipate a HUGE ST Tire war by the end of the season.. we'll see..

will keep you advised for sure

Bill
