Since going to -2 in the front, -1.5 rear and stilll using the car on the street I get better wear from my track cup tires but I admit the inner part of the street tires does wear more rapidly. Monitor your own tire wear and see what works...

I am among the many who can't wait for the Super Sport ZPs and Pilot Sport Cup 2 ZPs in the Z06 sizes because those are the identical sizes for the ZR1.

Thx, Ill be watching the alignment once I get those new Super Sports. Hoping they are out by Spring. Had the alignment set to the 09 specs last time.
