Paul,

Most GT3 RS owners have 2 sets of wheels - one with Road tyres the other with Cups/Toyos/Pirellis etc + when you venture to SPA etc you can generally get the wheels sent over with the tyre support vehicle

This took me 5 sess of Cup tyres to work out !

Count yourself lucky with this advice

BBS wheels/2nd hand GT3 RS wheels are fairly cheap £1500

Thanks tim , i knew this when i bought the car but it kind of hits home when your tyres last 2000 miles of normal driving!

Could you be so kind as to send me a pic of your car when it had the red centred BBS lm's , they looked mint from the brief pic i saw!

Think i will do with some LM's/LM-R's

Thanks for that

Paul -

It also helps to run higher pressures than recommended in the road tyres (it balloons the middle of the tyre slightly which counters the effect of lots of negative camber). I used to run 44psi in the rears and 39psi in the fronts on my road tyres (cold). I had the JZ full track setup and the road tyres wore completely evenly across the surface. It does make the car a little more skittish on the road though.

Lol... That web address is actually a friends business. If you visit the web site and speak to the owner (Steve Youle), tell him I sent you and see if he can help you... Alternatively I can get him to give you a call?
