Jay and Jason tested RT660 with M2 at November Musselman event.
Have you got to test them yet Dave?

No, haven't had a chance to test them yet. Hopefully at December AMP or Jan AMP event will do some back to back testing.

Best regards,
Dave

Here are pics comparing the two tires side by side, not mounted.

315/30/18 A052 and 315/30/18 RT660

The Falken looks slightly wider when laying side by side, but it looks to be caused by the Falken having a bit more of a rounded sidewalk.

The Yok actually has just a tad more surface area.

Pics below to help give multiple angles and views.

Best Regards,
Dave

Interesting how much more squared off the Yoks are.

apexit53 · 12-04-2020, 09:19 AM

I think yoko rear falken front will be the ticket.

This was my thought exactly

Ignore this post, just read reviews on Tirerack, I see why Falken is better on front.

I haven't seen much feedback yet on the Falkens, why better on the front?

Thanks

Falkens are a little numb on turn in response but put power down very well. Some M2 BS guys were running that setup near the end of last year.

Edit
talking in an autocross setting.

I liked them! Front had all sorts of grip... the 295's on the rear left a bit to be desired for rear grip. But overall they are an impressive 200TW tire.

Best regards,
