Wondering what Brand and Model tire came on your 23 or 24 GTS ? I know plenty of folks who plan to track or autocross their cars are looking at getting a set of 18s or 19s ( for more choices ) , but I am wondering if anything semi competitive is being shod on recently acquired vehicles. Thinking if maybe the stock 20s are somewhat aggressive I might be able to get in a DE or autocross this year. Heh, the Credit Card budget will be destroyed after my buy, so I realize my major fun time will begin next year.

My 2021 that I recently bought used had PS4s in 235/35 and 265/35 20s. I toasted them on the track and replaced them with the GT4 size of 245/35 and 295/30, much better look especially in the rear.

I then purchased a used set of 19" OZ wheels that I will use for my track setup.

Attached are photos of my drive mode covers, red and chalk. The red was before I had the GT4RS PDK shifter with chalk stitching.

Ok Larry I will order a chalk mode knob too, but what tires came on your little silver bullet. I would be happy with the Michelins as the PS4S is a solid all around tire and will do okay on a track , though autocrossing tends to chew up the outside edge. I am just afraid I will get the damn P Zeroes , as the zero designation is what I feel they are worth. I will run a set of Goodyear F1 Supercar 3Rs next year ( on 19 inch wheels, likely from Apex Race Parts ) because as a USAA member I can get them at a huge discount . I figure they will work quite well for the first set I burn down at the track and if the set up is right the second set will probably Hoosiers.
