Looking for a tire, to go on the 15x8 TE37SL wheels, that will be a good teacher. RcompoundUSA recommended the v730 as being good with heat and consistent. Pattern reminds me of sport comp2.

Seeing some pretty positive things about the v730:

I haven't ran them but I ran the previous Khumo 200tw line back in ~2010's.

I do point to GRM's quote here:
Grass Roots Motorsports wrote:Our benchmark for the test would be our reigning champ on single-lap pace, the Yokohama Advan A052. In testing earlier this year, the Nankang CR-1 and Falken Azenis RT660 could only match the Yokohama’s pace when run in wider sizes than the Yokohama.
15x8's lend well to this statement.
