We like the RS3 out here because it handles the heat of our tracks. Nothing wrong with the RE-11 and people in colder climates seem to prefer it. Never used it personally, but on tires I sort of follow the herd and my herd picks RS3's in SoCal.

On the OEM suspension, I personally feel(don't know) that the Hotchkiss would be too much. I would suggest either the Stillen or the Eibach sways as a huge, but not overkill solution that are both fairly inexpensive, and will make a large difference. I am now running the stillen sways on OEM suspension(non nismo) and it is wonderful as far as I am concerned. I can tell that once I upgrade springs and dampers that it will be too soft, but it is still an enormous upgrade from oem for ~ 300 bucks.

Sticking with our super laps. At least for now, not going to drop down to 18s so closest to "square" setup will be to run the 275/35/19s up front.

Currently on PSS and happy with them so far. If wife wants stickier tires I will def look at the rs3s

Are you suggesting keeping the stock rear bar and upgrading the front to the stillen or eibach set full stiff I'm assuming?
