Tires for a daily driver?

You want to run asymetic tires on these cars due to its suspension design. Car runs lots of neg camber and need reinforced inner treads.

those BFG's are not.

Does this mean the BFG's should have the inner side wall reinforced more than the outer sidewall for better wear or handling? Since the BFG can be run on the left or right side, the inner side wall is reinforced the same as the outer sidewall.

Just curious.

I just started my first couple-hundred miles on my Bridgestone Potenza S-04's and love them so far. I am not far enough yet to give a lot of detail but off the bat, I'm pleased with the look, comfort, grip, and quiet ride it's given so far. I have tried to break them loose once and was unsuccessful doing so- very sticky tire.
