    I'm looking into getting a set of track tires for my coupe. I talked w/ Bob Woodman, and he recomended Hoosier R6 225/40 front, and 275/35 or 295/30 rear. He said using the 285/30 rear would throw off the ABS. He also thought the 225/40F, 275/30R in the Toyo R888 would throw off the ABS. I didn't understand why, and he didn't have time to explain since he was away. I have used Michelin pilot sport cups on my 993 for a long time w/ success, but can't find anyone knowledgable to talk to on fitment for the 360. What experiences have people had?

    I am using the stock 7.5F, 10.0R wheels.

    Thanks!

    i put the toyo's on mine last year to do a trakday at spa. the improvement in grip and handling is so fatastic that i havn't taken them off again. you are running a slightly smaller rolling radius with these so accelleration is better but top speed is down. also speedo will be out.
    no problems with abs but asr is a little more sensative/annoying so i generaly have it turned of unless the road is really wet or greasy.
