I've opened this thread to see what everybody likes Rubber-wise. (well that came out wrong) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Anyway for AUTO-X iv been using: Falken Azensis 615 205/50R15 in C stock on stock Fuchs(sp) But I'm looking to see what others have been succesfull with in: CS STS2 (up to 225mm but are the 215s working for anybody?) SP MOD I'm also wondering if you use tire size to "regear" your 914. |

1st I think the 914 will do very well STS2
Which means you can go to a 7.5 inch rim and 225mm rubber either 15 or 16" dia. the Hottest tire on the course for street tire class is the Bridgestone RE-01R Followed by the Yokohama Advan Neova Budget tires in that class is the Azenis and then Hankook RS-2 and Kumho MX However most of these tires larger than 205mmsection width will not fit under stock fenders. I have run lots of tires from Hoosier R3S04 (225/45-15 to RS-2 (225/50-15) all the way up to slicks 22.5 x9.5 x 15 from a formula atlantic car. Now running some tires from AVON 240/600 R15 The more stick you have the more spring you will need or you will "bind" as you say. If I were to get mega serious about this I would run 275/35-15 Hoosier A6 and never put more then 30 competition runs on the set before religating them to practice. |
