Sticky tires need negative camber, especially on that car. I was running -3.5 front and -2 rear plus other suspension upgrades and only then I was able to use sticky tires and get all the benefit they provide.
If you are not tracking your car you are wasting really good tires.
For the street I would recommend bridgestones re 71 R tires.
Hope this helps
Then let's just say I am wasting the tires haha I needed more traction and my AD08R (50% worn) was not up for the job so I decided to try these. I have been on track and I agree that it under steers heavily, but track use is not the focus of this post.

Will added camber help on the floaty steering and breaking feel?
