I like it as much as I like gasoline.

You are being almost as cynical as Importconvert!

Of course the street is not the place to go 10/10ths nor is it ideal to test a car's setup and components but I wasn't aware those were qualifications for having fun.

I never said you can't have fun, I am just saying there are things you will never know because you didn't try racing/tracking the car. It doesn't make you a bad driver (I am plenty bad), but there are things that you don't know rather you like to admit it or not.

some things

are best left unknown.

onzedge - so how do you like the tires after motoring today?

OK -- I have 400 or so miles on them now and am highly impressed. The first couplel of days the tires were settling down and a little "bumpy". Now, they are very smooth.

Cornering is significantly improved over stock and I have driven in wet and dry. I am convinced these were the way to go.

kenchan · 04-22-2011, 03:15 PM

sounds good, onzedge!

supunna_picta · 04-22-2011, 04:10 PM

Tire break in is around 500 miles give or take, they should grip better then level out til the tread is gone.

onzedge · 04-28-2011, 10:47 AM

I am still liking these very much.

kenchan · 04-28-2011, 12:28 PM

considering they are lighter weight than the RE050A's i might seriously consider these next time around.

You should. I wish I could justify two sets of wheels/tires so I could alternate between the PSS and S04 PP's.

Congrats on new tires!!

How are you liking the tires? I am probably going to get these in two weeks myself.
