full day of education watchin all your videos, so much good information, glad there’s a channel like this so i don’t have to be buying parts guessing what will and won’t work
Glad to see these on another BMW. I plan on trying these out after I burn through the Kumho V720 12 autoX and 4x23-28 minute runs at MSR in Houston followed by another 12 autoX. May wait to place these on my 335D until you try the Advan
Thanks for the review. Have you used the NT01 previously? Any comparison, particularly with respect to grip consistency as it wears / longevity? Thanks
@@Thewinnerscircle_ The tires still have decent tread depth which is kinda weird. I'm pushing the car fairly hard, def not slow laps times at these tracks (Not the fastest, but def not slow). Feel like they should be worn down more though.
@@Black16STI don’t be mistaken for tread depth and tire life. You can have tread but the tires can be heat cycled past their life cycle. We use those tires as street tires all the time. Useless for track use but great to use on a regular day basis
Sorry, I don’t know much about tires on the E46. I rarely tracked mine and when I did, I just used the all seasons that were on the car because I wasn’t trying to set a lap time. Just trying to enjoy the car
I’m targeting 30 hot with these. I’m running around -4.2 to -4.5 camber in the front, -2.7 to -2.9 in the rear with toe in but can’t remember the numbers off the top of my head
At the 100tw segment, these are considered by many, as the best tire. It’s more consistent, just as fast in most cases, cheaper and lasts longer than the competition. I’ve considered other tires but these and the AO52 are the ones I’m trying first 🙌🏽
Another great video man. Just curious, have you ever driven a car with a CAE shifter? I Was considering upgrading the shifter in my f80 to the CAE shifter.
@@Thewinnerscircle_ I get what your saying, but I believe a true heat cycle occurs when the tires get sticky from hard driving in the corners. Setting the psi at 26 and getting it up to 34-35. A normal drive on city streets isn’t going to raise psi that much. I know were talking temps, but there is a correlation.I put lots of street miles (2k) on sport cup 2’s and they still have solid grip at the track because I only have a couple track days on them. I have the same car combo myself, maybe see you out there one day👊🏼
@@Raiderrosey my 2 heat cycles from driving on the street weren’t just a 5 mile drive lol it was about 120 miles round trip from San Diego to Burbank. Sorry, forgot to mention that.

Can't wait to hear your A052 comparrison!
It’s already out! It’s my most recent video 👌🏽
Keep these videos up man, I know you only have BMW and Porsche but these videos help me a lot with my ISF
Thanks bro 🙌🏽

Nice, I am definitely going to try these when I’m done with my rsr-rr
This will be a big upgrade in traction and consistency from those. I ran those before and these are night and day
Are you still running these? Was thinking about giving them a try.
I've had maybe 4'ish track days on mine, but have been ON the car for 2-years through 2 NorCal winters. Feel like mine are loosing grip
Yea man I’m sure you are. That’s a lot of heat cycles

what do you suggest for the e46 m3?
Sorry, I don’t know much about tires on the E46. I rarely tracked mine and when I did, I just used the all seasons that were on the car because I wasn’t trying to set a lap time. Just trying to enjoy the car
Do they warm up pretty quick? And how street drivability?
Nice video. What hot pressures were you targeting? What camber/toe are you running front/rear? Sorry if you talked about it elsewhere.
I’m targeting 30 hot with these. I’m running around -4.2 to -4.5 camber in the front, -2.7 to -2.9 in the rear with toe in but can’t remember the numbers off the top of my head
-2.2 -2.4 in the rear***
is it hard compound or soft?
Can you do a comparison between how going from staggered to square set up felt after you changed to the GT4 wheels?
It's a good value for the money, but are they really a top performer? Did you considered other brands too?

No I haven’t but they look very nice
Wonder how their new CR1 will compare to the a052 since they're carbon copies for a fraction of the price lol
Can you share your wheel specs. I know you said 315 squared, but offset, diameters, etc...
At what got pressure are you running them?
I ran these 32 hot
You consider a drive on the freeway a heat cycle?
Technically, any time the tires get up to temp, that’s considered a heat cycle

Did you drive big willow today
No man, I was out at button willow
That f80 in front of you?!?? You had the line into that left hander. Not cool of them.
That’s my uncle lol he gave me the line but I couldn’t see him so I conceded it back to him.
U need an e30
I used to own one!
Cool
