This is still for sale for anyone interested. I donāt have any pictures of it installed, and the blue represented in my photos is as accurate as I could capture and is pretty spot on to real life color.
I donāt think I have any pics, but I have some track videos on my YouTube channel that are shot inside the car and you can see the wheel:

Selling my East Coast Supra carbon fiber steering wheel with alcantara grips, blue stitching, and blue stripe. The alcantara has been reconditioned and looks and feels like new.
Used for about 1 year and is in great shape.
Asking $295 shipped via PayPal. Located in Michigan.
Definitely check inner rim edge like mentioned above and your lower control arm.
I hit a huge pothole/divot on track when going too wide at 70 mph. Iām talking like 2 feet wide and about 8ā deep.
Ended up ruining my SPL ball joint on the control arm and bending the inside edge of my wheel...
I like them. They're definitely fast but not sure if they're faster than the Nankang's or A052's though. Another thing I noticed compared to the V730's is they're less chatty and the grip lets go with much less warning.
Been prepping for next years GridLife Midwest festival and getting closer to podium times at Gingerman Raceway here in Michigan. Still on stock power without any aero.

I've used both tires myself as well, just wanted to hear your feedback lol. Both are great tires, and you are correct, the V730's price point is hard to beat (got my set for $760!).
My findings are spot-on with yours. V730's really talk to you, which is probably why I set a lot of PB's with...
These are the ones I use. Links to different sides below:

First set you pay for, the rest will be free thanks to FCP Euro, so no worries about rotor...
Just throwing my .02 out there and also recommending CSG pads. I use the C21 fronts (you should pair with C11 rear for best balance). They do eat rotors quickly. My replacement Zimmermann rotors from FCP Euro last about a season, or 12-15 track days.
Just installed my second pair, and will...
I hate hearing people needing new pistons and rings š at least thereās no cylinder wall scoring like you said. That would be worse. Think itās the same problem for all 21ās having consumption issues? Also, sounds like you have a pretty cool dealer to work with.
I forgot to update the status of...
Interesting. Maybe itās because they use Eibach springs? I think Eibach springs are better than HKS as far as performance, with Swift being better than both.
I track my Supra 2-3 times a month. I thought the HKS were pretty darn good and did allow me to take advantage of using a squared tire...
