Ultimate Performance Dry Traction Street Tires

Top times in my Auto-x group always come from cars running RS3's. I have even seen people ditch their hoosiers for them.

Definitely RS3 for your area, they handle high temperatures best of the three.

IMO 275 is going to be a lot of meat on the front with a tire this sticky. Consider a power steering cooler if you track. It's going to require more effort parking and give less feel. Not bad, just more and less. You'll really want to monitor pressure on them constantly so you don't pull to one side, and don't over/underinflate or they'll wear too fast.

The only benefit to the AD08 over the RS3 is that they are more consistent over a long run, but still not as fast overall. Plus they are a good bit more expensive. They would probably be the tire of choice in time attack though if the RS3 didn't exist.
You mean AD08 is more expensive than RS3?


RS-3 is definitely the tire I'm looking for.

I've been searching, and the only place I see them listed is Tirerack, anywhere else I can get a better price for these? I've read and they are supposed to be cheaper than RE11 and AD08 but everywhere I've checked they are more expensive.
