Thanks Steve, much appreciated.
I find it odd that the profile sizes are different. I can understand the width being different.
Anyone know why the profiles are different?

Without wanting to start a new thread, what tyre pressures is everyone running in these? I'm currently running 40PSI front and rear, but still feels a little soft.

Good question! Started a thread about this today... Sticker says 32psi all round for "small load" and 36psi and 43.5psi for "big load"

From what I've read anything over 40 the tires slide more... the sweet spot seems to be 38-40 hot. Depends how you drive it

Agree on 36-40 being sweet spot. Specifically after 4 track days since November I run 38 in front and 40 in back hot
