    Thanks for all the info everybody!
    When you start running the bigger events - Divisionals, NT's, etc, you will need two sets of mounted slicks (in addition to the mounted skinnier rain tires/wheels) - one for practice and the best set for competition, like I posted about this above. This is when you use the Tire Totes from SPS to cover up the tires. The rain tires are ALWAYS in the tire totes and in a cool, dark place and the coated competition tires get covered in tire totes the day of packing - the coated practice tires are on the car.
    Always remember that tire grip is your prime directive, everything else is secondary.

    Default Front end alignment

    Any suggestions on toe in/out or camber settings for Autox?

    For autox only, toe-out helps with a quicker turn-in. How much, depends on what your car likes - 1/8" out would be a good starting point.
