What ride height are you guys running? 4-5mm?

You mentioned that tire wear is an issue at SWR. Are we talking about 2mm + per run? The CRC High Roller tires I have are trued down to 48mm, will this be an issue?

Thanks,

The car seems happy at about 4mm ride height. It is a smooth track so maybe you can run a little lower.
I'm getting about 1mm tire wear per run, depending on the compound.
You should be ok at 48mm for the rears. I am starting out at 47mm rear and 45mm front on my Parma tires.
