Just curious why you chose the ZII over the Rivals? Most recent GRM had a comparo and they found the rivals to be more consistent. I haven't heard any real world feedback though, mainly since I haven't been to an event yet this season, plus I don't plan on running either one (don't auto-x all that often these days).
My New STF project...

I'm surprised more folks aren't running the 15x7.5 TR C1's, not that I support the fact that they copied Emilio's fittment on those 6UL's. It's just that they are so cheap and relatively light. I had the C1M's on my miata and liked them (especially for the price). Too bad you can only get black in the 15x7 +30 C1M.

I have been very close to order those for my rain tires (I will probably give up and order them) but sometimes you get to the point that you don't want to compromise, just a silly thought maybe....

Nice! I got BLACK 15x7.5 6UL's on my Mazda2 as well. I love them and they perform and look amazing. I'm running Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 tires.

Got exited last week after getting the tires on, and did some cosmetic changes ... this pics were taken this past weekend at Sebring after loosing by 0.004 of a second to my top STF competitor and friend in his Mini...

Not a bad idea, I thought about after seeing the silver/green mazda2, but might be over the top as my daily driver.
Maybe somebody can do some "red" photoshop:
Maybe easier using this:

They were good at the Autocross, they like high pressures in the 50's.
Drove through a heavy storm yesterday, holy cow, my traction control light was on so many times.
Today they are gone bye bye !! (toilet)
Welcome my new Rivals, Awesome !!!! Reminded me of my RS3's just better

Well put the Rivals tothe test at this weekend Autocross at Ft myers.. Amazing ! first day during the test and tune, I only got raw timed by a Porsche GT3 driven by a nationals driver.
Competition day I was overdriving the car the whole day overconfident and very dirty, but at last on my last run , being carefull I got a decent run enough to Pax 1st. Very happy with the tires and the set up, the car project is coming along well and almost ready..

Thanks sir.
*cough*soft pax*cough*
Seriously though, congrats!
Are you going to make the trek up to Massachusetts for the Match Tour in June? I'd love to grab a beer with ya
LOL, well it might be a coincidence but my friend with the Mini just Paxed first in Minneapolis at 47 degrees on the Rivals as well...
I thing the 2 has all the potential of doing well at National Level, even though the competition is harder than last year.
Masachutes might be too much of a trip for me , but you should drive to Blytheville
Here a picture of what might be one of the reasons the car is reacting better...
