the RS3's on 225 gives very solid steering feel when pushed to the limit and the grip.. now that's something to write home to your mom about! where before i would be squealing the heck out of the Michelins these were holding on for dear life and the poor girlfriend was having a really hard time trying to stay in her seat (not ready to splurge on a bucket seat for the passenger yet  ). i had to push very hard to get them to break loose a bit. i was very impressed indeed at what a little more tire and grippier rubber does for the handling.
it feels more planted at speed as well and the steering is a tad heavier but in a good way. running 32psi front 34psi rear cold.
i am very happy with my purchase gents! thanks a lot for the input! 
i can only imagine how it will handle with a more aggressive alignment which i'm hoping to get this week. |
That is the same setup that I ran once upon a time and it worked very well! The alignment will only help that much more. It will be a blast on the track.
