I used to have an extra set of rims and R or A compound tires, but got tired of changing wheels for racing.

When I was driving my 2001 Boxster S, I swapped FTDs with a guy in a Z06. I was on street tires, he was on Hoosiers. He only ran once without his Hoosiers. He was 5 seconds slower.

who changes them? i ran R compound tires for the last two summers. everywhere. good times!
