Also, are people really truing the rubber tires? Currently I just rotate them from left to right to get even wear and set my front camber to wear them flat.
The best way I found to prep the SJT tires was just to clean them with sauce 5 min before your heat. Motor spray takes grip out of the tires and letting sauce sit made them take too long to get going.
