Holding up surprisingly well. Have about 18 heat cycles and around 2000 street miles on them. Still some tread left, although front left is getting close to gone. Shoulders/walls are very stiff and have not rolled over too bad. I shoot for 34-36 psi hot which is about 26-28 cold.

Hoosiers also have a stiff wall so they'll work too. Depends what you like. I must say I've been using the new R7 on my E36 and have been very impressed. Have around 20 heat cycles and haven't noticed much drop off yet. Got to get them hot for them to stick good, around 3 laps but can stay out the whole session without them getting greasy.
