Default GT3 advice!!

I have a 98 J Spec ITR pushing 450+ hp. The thing is, with warmed up tires, the car handles like a dream....maybe a slight push through corners but that's it. Here's my problem. Whatever tires i get, before i finish a lap at Trial Mountain, my tires get SHREDDED up! ANy ideas? Is it my camber? ANy ideas for a ideal camber setting for front and rears? Or is my car just too powerful for my tires?

Thanks Guys.

Bryan

Are you saying that the compound you choose doesn't matter, the tires are still toasting themselves?

Also, remember that you have a huge amount of HP in a FF car, so ALL of the power is upon those 2 tires, as well as most of the braking force (which is probably a lot since you mentioned it "pushing"). This is a real-life flaw, it's physics really, don't think you can fix it. Best of luck to ya'.
