Just repurposed my Track V.1s for diff car with different tires so have no need to keep these.
Sumitomo HTR Z3 Max Performance
225/45-18 & 245/45-18 (stock size set-up on Z33 18" wheels - Touring or Track)
More pics below.
These are date coded ~early 2013 (+/- couple months) when I bought them from Tire Rack (current price @ TR: $440. for the set).
I put roughly 3.5k miles on them before swapping out. As such, they still have 6/32 to 7/32nds on them (maybe more, haven't measured); essentially just broken in. They've been stored OFF CAR in warm garage. No rot, no camber wear.
WAS $325.00
WAS $225.
$175 LAST BUMP
My assessment (as stated many times here on the forum):
"I was nervous buying these at first due to the low price AND they were replacing some worn but very sticky Michelin PS. My biggest fear was losing the sharp turn-in response and of course, overall grip.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that these not only retained the razor sharp reflexes but overall grip NEVER suffered. I would definitely buy another set of these.... ESPECIALLY for the price."
PM me if you're interested. Can meet-up in South Bay area, Mountain View to South San Jose.

Note: I JUST took these off the wheels this week and they're sitting outside right now - covered with a car cover to protect them, seriously - due to space constraints in my too-small garage...
Cheers,
Mic
PS Would consider shipping on buyer's dime but local sale for now.
