They might just use them for their rain tires because the rack of wheels I saw in the realtime paddock were all Enkei.

While I'm sure that would give them the least rotational mass due to reduced diameter, it probably would look incredibly small on street TSX's.

Those tires are mandated by the SCCA:
http://www.world-challenge.com/series.php?page=carfacts
Touring Car (TC): The tires used are the Toyo Proxes RA-1 race compound DOT-approved tire. The size used is the same for all TC cars, it is the 235/40/17.

Is this proof that the TSX chassis is a better balanced platform than it's RSX sibling?
With both of them meeting the 2,550-lb minimum weight requirement, it would seem that it would come down to the more-balanced out of the two.
Or has the TSX drivers been better?
