I ran them mostly in San Deigo which is an asphalt site. I've been told by many people my experience was typical for that site and full tread tires are a must.

For the Corolla hmm HSR doesn't sound like fun, skinny R comps on skinny wheels with no camber gain. Might break a record for fewest runs before cording

Skinny Rs? 225s are easy, if the fenders will take a 245 could be pinched on those wheels. Like all Toyotas it should get crash bolts, so while it main not gain any it should start with -2, which is much better than the tire shredding Mini. That is a lot of car to make go on skinny street tires.

Does the Corolla use the typical 5.5" rim?

Appears to be a 17x7.

Competitors are starting to roll in for the Pro and I hear the AZ folks are gonna make the trip to SD so SOPAC might have some interesting battles.

I've finally finished copying Jasons HP suspension setup, aside from shocks, and so far the car feels fantastic, even with the stiff springs up front its very complaint. Now I just need to figure out my tire situation, really want the RS3 but I don't think thats in the cards for me.
