track wheels and tires ---maybe?
So the dilemma we face.
Going to my 2nd track weekend at Barber this weekend. I did my first weekend on new of PS4S. My bet that after this weekend they will be in pretty poor shape. I have a 2017 OG M2 that is a weekend driver. If I were to go the route of a second set of wheels tires what route advice would give? What a can of worms! |

Titan-7 have worked great for me. I have a set of 19” TS-5s for track duty. I’ll be at Barber this weekend also. If you want to see the wheels, look me up. White M2C #350. Hope for no rain!!

Fwiw, for my track weekends, I went with the following for my M2C:
- Apex EC-7 wheelset (F:19x9.5, ET28, 22.65 lbs. & R:19x10.5, ET45, 23.4 lbs.) - Michelin Pilot Sport Cup-2 Connect 255/35/19 & 275/35/19 tires I run the exact same wheels but with PS4S's in the same size above for daily/street use.

Second set for track is a must after the first 2-3 events and will save you money by using track tires that can last multiple events. ps4s is soft and not designed for track only environment. Always remember to bring a spare wheel. Rims crack and tires pop even new ones. gl |

Cheap square way:
4x 10" M437 wheels, to mount them in the front you will need a spacer, with 275/30 tyres. |

If you want any chance of tire life, you'll need camber plates.
