Has anyone run these tires on their model 3? This was quite popular among the hot-hatch folks in VW/Ford and some BMWs....I enjoyed them on my Golf R before I tried the PS4S (which are arguably better but also a few hundred dollars more).
I actually preferred these Firestone's on track for its stiffer sidewall and more progressive feel when you're at the limit.
Just not sure about how loud it will be with the Model 3 and how it'll wear.

I would put these on some 19x9.5" wheels like TItan 7 TS5.

Thanks!

Not those specifically, but i'm running some S007A in 265/35/R19 on 19x9.5 at the moment. Got them for the price and extreme performance for track use. They aren't the best track tire (similar to a PS4S or so) but they're pretty good on the street and not too loud, way quieter than RE71s haha

Running VMR flow formed wheels since they're fairly strong and affordable, they also machine them to fit the P3D brakes.

Have had my eye on some VS Forged.

Yup same here. I like that they custom build to your specs. The only downside is the length of time it takes to produce them. I spoke to getyourwheels guys and they said there won't be any Black Friday sales for VS this year. I was holding out for a sale.

just order them already....it’s worth the wait!! Still haven’t found a better deal for a custom spec’d monoblock forged wheel. search my previous posts if you’re interested in seeing more pics.
