Here in the Pacific NW its cold and wet in the early spring – or at least it can be. Like low 40’s in the morning warming up to low 50’s. My question is if I got Cup2’s can they be run effectively in those temps or just a summer tire? Anybody have experience driving the Cup 2’s in colder/wetter weather?
My 228i w/track package is a streetable car that I bought largely for track fun. Mostly stock with Ground Control camber plates, new rotors & pads. Currently has 4S that I have driven twice at the track and liked them. Fitment seems to be an issue with this car. No rubbing now with square setup with OEM 18″ x 8″ wheels w/12mm spacer in front. Changing to an Apex ARC-8 wheel 18 X 8.5 et45 w/ 5 mm spacer in front.
Front camber -3.5
Rear camber -2.1
The 4S are 245/35/18. Tire choice is limited in that 35 series. Going to a 40 series tire opens up a lot of possibilities but they may rub since most are about 1″ bigger diameter.
Anyway, I figure if I only have a couple choices and they are the 4S or the Cup 2’s that’s probably pretty good (but spendy$$)
Thanks for any comments.
