Guys,
I've been running on Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires for the last three events I've done and I'm thinking I can get another weekend out of these but wanted to try to get an opinion from someone who's run through a set of these.
I've had a total of 9 days on them and approximately 24 heat cycles. Last event was Thunderbolt and about mid-way through I was ready to say they were shot. I was sliding around quite a bit, but it was really hot. After dialing down the pressures, they performed really well through five run groups on the last day.
Anyhow, there seem to be many opinions online about these tires. One guy says they last forever, another says they're good for 20-30 heat cycles. I've got what seems to be OK tread left on one side and semi-OK on the other. Photos below.
Opinions?
Thanks in advance,
-Corey
