I did use the search button and so far looks like the Toyo's RA-1 are the favorites. My stock S02's are pretty beat up after ~13,000 miles including 5 track days. Couple of things I'm not sure about is whether I should opt for a bigger front sway bar (and bigger front tires) and what alignment to dial in.

Can anyone explain why people get the bigger sway bar? Is it to keep the inside rear from lifting in tight corners on R comp? Is it worth it? Which one to get - Mugen?

Alignment specks - I am thinking about keeping everything stock except up the front camber to -1.5 degrees and rear to -2.0.

Please keep in mind that my car sees regular street duty and a few open track days when the opportunity is there.

Thanks,
Drew

 

On normal DOT-R's you woun't get much wheel spin. The sway bar in most cases is to reduce body roll (for wheelspin) and reduce oversteer (technically induce understeer).

I'd leave it all alone and start w/ RA-1s and see if you need any changes. Then go w/ sway bar(s).

The RA1s do like a lot of camber.

 

Thanks, I'll give Vilven Tire a call.
