With time to debrief on last weeks shakedown, I am looking to try a change to staggered tire dim. Wonder if anyone is comfortable sharing their experience.
Currently have run 225/45R15's all round on 7inchers and 225/50R15 on 7's front and 8's rear. But all my running is on older tires so difficult to draw conclusion. Transitioning from DE to road racing. Basic set up: E-Production, less than 150hp, wide fender, welded diff, 916 brakes. 911 front. 2008 lbs car Appreciate any insight. Thanks, |

For a low hp car, and tight and twisty track (streets of willow for me) i always liked a good 205/50r15 on all 4 corners. Balance is right for a non staggered setup, and low power means you dont have to worry about overpowering the rear tires. I ran in a class that limited treadwear to 200, so the Bridgestone re71 fit the bill well. I also prefer a bit of oversteer vs under, so it depends on your comfort level too…
