Thats why i run mine stock before changing things. I like to know how the change will affect it.

I hope not but probably will.

The nice thing about the BMR bar is that it's softest setting is only 6% stiffer than stock 1LE, so if want the balance back to stock I don't have to take it off.
One option that may be available later this year is the new Falken RT660 in 305/30/19 and 315/30/19 sizes. An early GRM test by Whitener and Hollis indicated that they are even with the RE71R for autocross performance, but we'll see. If they are, then that staggered fitment might be a slightly better match to our wheel widths than a square 305 setup.
Thanks! Both the car and I are a work in progress. The car is closer to perfection than I am!
*I’m guessing this is the eLSD trying to get me out of the corner as efficiently and with as little understeer as possible, and it does seem to accomplish that.

Yeah ive heard they are about .3 off the RE71R. It sounds bad but i dont trust the grassroots tests. Main reason is they have for years been saying the BFG is fast and im sure it is in some cases but nats every year it seems the RE has been faster. BFG is on their second or third iteration? Just me though. I like the sharpness and forward grip of the RE
