Running again next weekend... New rotors, pads and lines, also got a set of K&N short ram intakes. I'm on 245/285 Bridgestone S04s which were surprisingly not crappy at the first event although I'm guessing that as I get faster I'll probably end up getting a dedicated set of track wheels/tires.

Does anyone here run 18s for track wheels with sport package brakes?? I'm thinking thats the direction I want to go for the cheap/light factor.
I run Enkei PF01 18x9.5" +35 18x10.5" +15 rims with Toyo R888 275/40r18 square right now. I have Nitto NT01 275/40 front 305/35 rear I want to use this season. This fits over the sport brakes without spacers as well. Loved the R888 for HPDE and autocross. My region runs on a long airstrip with runs that last up to 80-90 seconds and sometimes get into 3rd gear for a majority of the run, so the R888 do have a time to heat up. Semi-slicks like that aren't always the best choice for autocross at smaller events. Also, like someone had already said, those Evos sound like the ASP cars I run with (ugh they're not easy to beat). Maybe should have someone re-evaluate which class you're in.
