Replacing 1LE tires
so my Goodyear*Eagle® F1 SuperCar® G:2 tires are now "dangerously worn out" after several track sessions, and I started thinking about the alternatives. is there some other tire that won't be consumed very fast on the track?

The pilot super sports are supposed to last longer, I don't know first hand though.

since I am a track rat, I would not recommend PSS as they SUCK on the track...great for DD though. As far as tracking goes, I have used all of them and prefer the eagles and would stick with them until you are able to put the 1le all the way to the edge of the envelope. You will run out of brake loooooooong before you get to the edge with the eagles.

There you go! From someone that tracks their car. It'd be nice if the goodyears lasted a little longer.

You can also give Hankook RS-3s a shot. They seemed to have a little more tolerance against overheating, which is one of the main causes of premature wear. Lap times were very similar for me between the two.
