<< So if you've driven with these tires, I'd be curious to hear about the
conditions under which you drive them. How much does your car weigh?
Anti-sway bar, yes? Autocross vs. track? If the track, do you have any
serious elevation change, or is it all flat? SIR is counterclockwise (the
way we run it), has elevation change, and has turns that just wear the right
front tires down to the bone.

Driven on these on a 944 Turbo, an M3, and a 924S. All were good - not as
good as Hoosiers, but still very good. Still have the same set for the last
few years. Nice tires, good wear characteristics, good in the rain. You did
something wrong, or there was something wrong with your specific set (ie, you
probably did something wrong).
No offense, but a LOT of people use these and are happy with them. About
every other car at BMWCCA schools run them, no problems other than not the
ultimate grip of a RS Hoosier or Goodyear GS-CS (what I'm running now.) I
still have my A008RS's, and they're still going - after 20 plus track days
and seven years.
Later!
