Regarding this comment above "Hankook RS-3/4 - Generally well liked by those that have used them and talk about them here. TR reviews don't glow. Another tire we could use more info on."

I've run the MPSS and the RS-3's on track in my old 235i. The MPSS had great grip and great feel but did not stand up to heavy track use - see photos below.

I switched to a square setup with the RS-3s. I found the RS-3s to be much more durable on track. Ultimate dry grip was about the same as the MPSS, wet grip was noticeably worse, but durability was awesome. Plus with a square setup they can be moved around on the car to even out the wear.

CAVEAT - I am now seeking a track wheel and tire solution for my M2 and I'm struggling a bit with what to do. I'm thinking about the TR wheel setup with either the RS-4s or the RE71s.
