Just Curious

Have you sent your pictures to anyone at Pirelli or had a knowledgeable tire installer render an opinion?

I do not have much of any input on springs because I've never run them on a stock PASM set up. My 09 has the lowered Sport PASM and to me it is much better than the stock PASM...that is the only comparison I have. I've taught students in 997's with aftermarket springs that lowered the car and in that beginning student setting I did not feel anything bad on the track.
Yes, the previous owner put on the GT3 LCAs (i believe a fried of yours or someone you have tracked with). I'm using the 19 inch Carrera Classics for my track wheels (235/295 R888s).
