Generally I run 50K or higher rear diff, 2.5mm sway bar, 3deg toe etc etc. Tire wear isn't an issue for me, i cut them down to 58/60mm on 30 min finals at our home track.

As you can see, my setup doesn't indicate a lack of rear grip to justify the DLS.

At the moment, I would still rather pour the $130 on more sets of tires or a fresh engine which would give me instant guaranteed speed.
I went with the dls system and i was able to dirve into and out of the corners harder which drop my lap times down
