different wear fronts vs rears after track-day

alper

Ready to race!
I also use 235/35/19 Pilot Sport 4S on my R. I have more pressure, about 38-40 psi (2.8 bar) on all tires during track visits. I have the same pattern as you have with more wear after 4 track days. Before I had Michelin PSS, about the same wear. I swap wheels. First front left to right. Then front to rear. Next time front left to right and so on to get even wear during the tires life time.

4S - Great tires!

Thanks for that feed-back. As I said earlier, since I posted and started investigating around it seems it's something common with these tires so there's only as much that you can do. Definitely raise the pressures slightly, swap tires more often (maybe between track-days also) and that's it. Camber plates (although nice) sound like an overkill for my use. For 2-3 days per year (2 is more likely) I think I'll manage.
