I'm cheap and I'm trying to really take the RS-3's to my best times possible before going to more expensive treads. So until I stop improving I'll stay with them.

Tires work well in hot ambient temps, survive 25 min sessions if the pressures are set correctly and have predictable breakaway. But watch out in cold ambient temps, until the tires warm up they are very slippy. I did a no throttle spin on a parade lap at 30 mph on cold tires.
