Default WRX tire wear before and after track day.

Posted on behalf of a follow WRX-er.

He was kind enough to post me some before and after pics of the tires I'm intrested in putting on my car. I thought the people here intrested in auto-X might be intrested, remember that tires are the most important tunable part of a cars handling!

These tires are tough but as you can see track days are expensive!

Having said that I was stuffing around with pressures and never got them right, it was bloody hot out there as well. The beauty of them is that you can swap them from left to right to even up the wear.
