my last set of V700 victoracers were shaved and heat cycled.

anyone with direct experience for road racing regarding the necessity for these services?

is it necessary to shave the tire when the car is less than 2000 lbs? I can see wanting to do it if you have a big powerful and heavy car like a vette or viper.

I did not find any improvement in grip by having them shaved.

Heat Cycling made them last longer, for sure.
