So how did this setup work out at the track?

Im running 12.2's consistently with 1.85-1.9 60fts on bald Nankangs...looking to upgrade.

It worked well.............I cut consistant 1.7x's with a 1.72 best on a decent prepped day(most days have crappy prep). I'm using a new 16'' setup now with old S-Class wheels and 255/50 16 hoosiers and get the same 60's while being 35lbs(total for both wheels) lighter.

Sure, rub it in!! The 275's fit fine on the 17x8's and they do seem to work pretty good at the track.....
