Ive been using the F55 in my c5 since new. Launch in soft.. If I leave in sport, I will lose .05 to .07. I have broke loose in sport also. They work great. Best is 1.42 60'.

Ive been using M/T 275/40/17 on stock 8.5 inch front c5 thinspokes. Now I need to step up the tire size because the track prep has been worse this year. Up until now, I have been running great with them.
