But I have to ask, are you at least flipping the wheels left to right, both front and rear, on these track days? You have to bring a jack and tools to do that, and if you do the tires will wear more evenly left and right. I do this on every track I go to, and at this track it looks like you have to do this between every session vs every 2.

With that wear pattern it looks like you're driving on an oval.


If you rotate the wheel and tire, then the outside stays outside. You are safe to do this and it will help maximum tread life.
