    This is a true statement, but the 615 was indeed better than the RS2 for autox. I do not know if the RS3 is now better than the RT615.

    Only potential issue with the RT615s is in the hottest times of the summer you might have to spray them down with water between runs.
    Yah. I have sometimes seen times drop or people struggling with their car running the Falkens in the south during a summer Auto-X.

    I know my knowledge and direct experience relates directly to the track but I was just passing along some more information.

        the BEST 14" autox tire is going to be the Hoosier A6 in 225/50

        but, you will probably not like the expense..

        if you want a street tire, you'll have to move up to 15" or 17" wheels.
