I ran the HTRZ2's on my APU supra. I like them because they never gave
me any wheel hop issues, could also be due to the fact that they loose
grip before they could.
I just purchased a set of the HTRZ3's for my E36 M3, put them on today.
So far I like them, grip well, road noise isnt bad compared to the R
compounds that were on before, and the cost is low.
