    Oh no. I dropped some coin on A6's as well since I didn't hear anything back. Mine are already professionally mounted/balanced and installed on the car.

    I'm 99% sure A6's are ok. I wouldn't worry.

    Any help on whether the R6 and/or the A6 will be acceptable for March 2012 would be very helpful. The last minute stuff give me more heartburn than stadium food :-)

    I was thinking about running R888's myself.

    Might want to check the speed rating on the R888's vs what you plan to run. Might not scratch the itch.

    Hemisam - I have done a change up and had talked to a team that is using the new continental 5P which looks interesting. I'm waiting on info of the tire although, it is a Y rated tire. But, haven't found out just what the top speed is for those tires as of yet. The R888's if I am correct was rated around 195 mph. But don't qoute me on that. Now, I am running the stock srt8 20" rims.
