Do you regret not replacing the CUP 2s

[Jjmoberg]

I like them too. No regrets keeping them at all. My last fun car was a 2000 hard top Vette with wider than factory tires and wheels and lowered about 1.25 inches. Shocks, endlinks, swaybar bushings, frame rails, etc. That thing grabbed every single groove in the road. The M1 isnt as bad as that was quite frankly. My next set of tires will be something similar to the Cup 2, if not the Cup 2, in 305/325. Maybe the GY Eagle F1 SC3. I will ride the factory Cup2s til they are dead.

I enjoy the Cup 2s, so I kept them on the OEM wheels, but picked up SVE MHP1 replicas from LMR. The Cup 2s do throw rocks like crazy, so there is that...

Hi, I was thinking of doing the same. Do the SVE replicas look like they are too tucked in on the front with the handling package fender flares on? Just from an aesthetic standpoint.

Best picture I could find, sorry.

That’s perfect what I was looking for. Awesome pin striping!

With 4,800 miles on my 19 PP2 and SC2 tires, I finally replaced them with Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02's. I went to the best brake and alignment shop in Louisville for the tires and an alignment. They had to change the camber bolts, but I can't argue with the results. It's like having a new car. The tramlining is gone, the ride is much smoother, and while I haven't really pushed it hard yet they seem to hold the road like the SC2's.
I loved the SC2 when it came to handling, but wet and cold was something I avoided, and the tramlining could get old. They may have saved my butt when a tour bus decided it wanted my lane more than I did, but I was losing confidence with age and condition of the tires.
