As I lowered my tire pressure from 50+hot to 50-49 hot I started rolling
onto the side walls. Any lower an I would have been rolling onto the
rim.

FWIW, I run the UrS4 16x8's on my 91 200q with no problems on the track.
I have Koni yellow up front, set halfway, koni red on the back, H&R all
around. I use dedicated track tires, usually Toyo Proxy RA1's. Front
camber is about 1.5, rear about .5. I run about 36/34 f/r as a starting
point and look for about 42-43 maximum hot (if no pyrometer). If you
are seeing 50 psi, you have WAY too much tire pressure to start. The car
leans plenty, but handles well givne the weight and weight distribution
(57/43). I can even induce some TTO. HTH.
