Right now I have some shitty bridgestones on there, but I dont remember the model. They are kind of old and not very sticy at all. Theyre being replaced as soon as the weather breaks in the spring with pilot road 2s.

Pilot Powers for street and track.

I picked up a new set of wheels a couple weeks ago, so I'll start using race rubber at the track. I'm going to run my first couple days on Pilot Powers though so I can compare more easily, rather than trying to remember what the Pilot Powers felt like last season. Hoping for a considerable gain in traction in the high speed/heavy acceleration turns.

Try some pirelli diablo supercorsas

That's what I have.

Compound combos depend on your track and temps/conditions, ask the vendor. At my track in normal conditions most guys run a blue front and green rear.

Thanks, I'll have to try those - I run most my days with NESBA and I think they give fair prices on them.

Is that like a hard front and medium rear?

blue = supersoft
green = soft
yellow = medium

forget what the hard is.
