    Default From my very first track day...

    15" all seasons. Stock sways with a Dinan spring / shock setup.

    Our track surface here is a tad course as you can see. Note the chunking starting in the middle. I quickly got off the all seasons as this was killing them.

    I'll have to take a pic the tire I chunked out this year. Too much heat on the edge - a real problem with the E34.

    Default Here's a Kuhmo Victorracer tire

    This is what led me to install the camber plates. Front tire, huge outter edge wear. Camber plates have helped this but not prevented it. Hard to get much negative front camber in our cars.

    Also, note the pressure bulges in the tire. Put too much air in initially and it got too high over the session. Chalk all that up to learning.
