    As someone coming from autocross I can agree there is a noticable difference in times from the Bridgstone RE71RS to the Falken rt660 to the kenda kr20 or Dunlops or even the gt radial or nittos. The falken and Bridgestone are currently king with the Bridgestone slightly ahead. I would be really interested to see someone that doesn't have a tire sponsorship cover the differences in the 200utqg tires for drifting so that the grassroots people can make an educated decision about which tire would be best for them instead of just buying what they think is best bang for your buck

      Very interesting. Have you personally noticed the Bridgestones being superior to some of the others on your car?

    • @02bluehawk
      @02bluehawk หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @jstample the re71rs is the fastest 200utqg tire ATM. That will likely change within the next 2 years as it's usually a 2-3 year reign that one tire has then someone releases a new tire to beat the champ been that way for the past 10-15 years that Autocross has had dedicated street tire classes. Started with the rt615k from falken then it was a Toyo proxi then the Bridgestone re71 then bfg rival then falken rt660 then the Yokohama a052, now the re71rs. Street tire classes in autocross are extremely competitive and 0.5 second over a 40-60 sec run makes a big difference in placement at the top.

    One mistake I see a lot is way too much spring rate and/or swaybar. These REDUCE grip, even if the reduction in roll can help in some cases.
    The suspension only keeps the tires on the asphalt when it goes through it's full range of motion during a run. If you are only using a couple inches of travel, you are leaving a lot on the table in most cases. Hence why you see many cars with OEM shocks and springs really shine, and many with coilovers constantly spinning.
    But the real devil is where and when you want the grip. Want more or less over/understeer? Do you dive into the corners or take a late apex? Fast twitchy turn-in or slow easy steering? It all goes from applied science to seat-pants voodoo if you aren't careful in tracking variables. The worst part is when we make assumptions something will help, only to realize no real gain from a substantial "upgrade". I have personally realized a depressingly long list of these.

    Rain will make or break for tire versus geometry argument. Sure in the dry, the higher grip tires will give you grip advantage, but usually the higher the grip tires are worse in the rain and geometry becomes so much more important the lower the road friction gets.

    When I picked up my 350Z I was drifting with Chineses crap tires Frt and Rear. The car would understeer like crazy and then snap oversteer and spin. Nightmare. I threw some Falken 510s up front and Accelera PHi on Rear. Not the best or most expensive but the car is transformed. Front goes where I point it and the rear has better bite both side and fwd and reacts to throttle inputs. It has BCs and alignment but the tires is where I made the gains.

    • @kazihossain4344
      @kazihossain4344 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If youre over 50-60 psi it rounds out the contact patch and you’ll have premature wear on the midline of the tire. Just add camber and remount the tires inside out when you use up the inner half of the tread

    Is it due to cost that people run cheaper tires?

    • @02bluehawk
      @02bluehawk 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Personally I think is a combination of cost and lack of information about the tires. With alot of the people we look to for factual information on set ups having a tire sponsorship guess what tire they are going to recommend.
      In the autocross and road course racing world like he said if you arnt on the right tire you lose so it's very easy to see which is the best for that day and surface cause yea certain tires do better on asphalt than concrete and vise versa as well as track temperature can determine which tire is best for that day and obviously rain is factor as well.
      At national tour autocross events I've seen people bring 4 different brand sets of tires and depending on what the weather, and track surface was like would determine what tire they use

    @Joaquimdrift46 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I’m curious, how do you adjust when you have a tire limitation for certain competitions like the gambler and some pro-am leagues where your stuck on a 235 tire width

    • @RAWSIN13
      @RAWSIN13 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you can’t change the width and you’re limited in the tread wear rating. Then as Josiah said you need to find a good tire brand. Because even though two tires might be 200tw the compound and the way they act in drift and how quickly they’ll fall off will be different from one manufacturer to the other. After that you’ll have to look at your suspension and they and find ways to maximize your set up on every track
