19" Track Tires

[AF_M4]

Anyone have any experience on track tires for the M4? I want to put on Toyo R888's but don't know which wheel to buy that can still fit the carbon breaks.

Thanks

I use michelin pilot sport cup 2's in a 265/285 stagger

Nitto just released a 285/35/19 NT01 that can be paired up with their 305/30/19 NT01 as well

I used 265/35/19 Yokohama Advan Neova AD08R's in front, and 295/35/19's in the rear. Was quite happy with them.

18 vs 19 setup for the track???

Now that Apex just launched their line of 19s,wondering if 19s would be better than 18 staggered setup..apologies in advance if this is a repost.

Did you drive these on the street as well, how harsh were they vs. stock? Noisy?

I used the AD08r's for about 20000 kms this rear.A lot more impact harshness and hydroplane much easier than the stock PSS but I could live with that.Heat cycled out after about 3 hard days at the track but zero issues with chunking with stock alignment settings.I was running 275/30 19 & 295/30 19's on a 10 & 11" setup.

I think that is direction that I am leaning but in the RE71R's were available in proper sizing I would probably go that way.

sport cup 2s were out initially since they are expensive but then found in stock 19 fitments actually 1350, not so bad, for a drive to and from track set up.

We are limited to 140 + wear rating tires so my choices are somewhat more limited.I tried to get the MPSC's last year with no luck.

I went Apex EC-7 19x10 square running Toyo R888 265/30-19. I have CCB. Fits caliper better than stock 437

I run ADO8R's on ZE40's in 275 front 295 rear. Second track day and I've been very happy with them. Probably have a day or two left with them. They feel good around 38psi hot imo.
