[QUOTE="masonh, post: 13117492, member: 151083"] Well said. Even if it's 60-70* outside wait until the OEM tires are warm before you try and sharp turns at speed or come out of turns on throttle, even with traction control on. I took a left turn out of my neighborhood a few days ago and maybe 25-30 trying to catch the light. It was a 90* turn left because it was at a traffic light, but i was cutting most of the angle out of it and mt entire car just started sliding. All four wheels where sliding like the tires were plastic or something. Luckily they grabbed at the last second and I was saved, but now I always get them hot before i do anything I wouldn't do in a Smart Car. Like DS says the tires are good when warm, even great. I can't see myself trading them in for Super Sports because they grip better when hot. Seriously a great OEM tire, I can't believe people bitch about them. yeah they make a little noise, pick up rocks easy and track a little, but what did they expect out of a race tire? [/QUOTE]
