Ok. So it's 90% track tire and 10% street tire. These tires aren't meant to be driven in the rain nor in temps under 60. Tread rating is the key.

I live in South GA so weather is ok for these tires but I put on a tire that'll get more than 8k or 10k miles before needing to be swapped out. Which I'm sure you're needing new tires now.

SC3 and 3r tires only hook up once properly warmed up, like I said. Go out and stomp on it 10 minutes down the road and the car will be dancing around. With my Pirelli's, I can stomp on it 10 minutes down the road and it'll hook.

I have a set of track rims that I put the SC3's on and use them where they are meant to be. I'm not doing that with my Pirelli's because they are my daily tire.
