They do supersports for the rears, but cant find fronts, can you mix and
use sport 3's on the front?

I've put PS2's on mine, not sure if they are still available, but they soften the ride quite a bit and make it less wondery than with the cups, The only downside is they are a bit narrower on the front so the front doesn't seem quite so planted, but most of this is dialed out if you install the track extension for the extra front end down-force.

Also check the shocks are set to full soft (maybe one click off on the rears IIRC) its subtle but every little bit helps with an ACR.

The CUPS are actually quite usable once the weather warms up a bit, i have even used them in the rain with no issues other than being extremely nervous, but they handled wet roads surprisingly well.

Doesn't really matter which of the available choices you put on an ACR at this time of year, your going to struggle for grip no matter what, but I'm not afraid to take the ACR out in the PS2's.
