Impressive, how many sets of tires have you gone through ?

Just removed the original PS4’s to install Cup2’s. They had 2100 miles and aren’t 1/3 gone. Look slightly used and the wear is even. Chock that up to -2* camber.
Rears are the top tire and front is the lower tire:
Maybe I’ll sell them…

That’s not bad. I saw that speed phenom guy complain about just blowing through tires. Granted he was running the cup2’s.

I just measured my pads after my event at Homestead/Miami yesterday, and i am down to .175" (.4" original) That is after 2 days at Gateway, St. Louis, 2 rainy days at Heartland, Kansas and 2 days at Homestead, FL. I have replacement pads and the aforementioned bolts ready to go. I wonder if NAPA can machine the rotors, On the last day, my brakes had some shutter.
OK! Track Tire update! I installed a set of Supercar 3R tires and they lasted ONE day at Homestead, MIAMI! Totally toast! (Using vorshlag camber plates at -2.5) Pictures to follow! Rear tires are at wear markers and front-right outside edges are down to the second layer of rubber! Front-right at wear markers (we did run the car in 2 run groups with 2 drivers, so essentially 2 days)
My other GT500 with sport cup 2s and same camber have tire life remaining, I'd say one more day with a rotation left-right.
Supercar 3R DO GRIP better (1 second better lap)! But 100 vs 180 treadwear, and you get one hard day vs 2! I will be "sticking" with staggered sport cup 2s from now on. With staggered I get a little more rear life vs front.
