Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Tires spin without squeal when broken loose

I did a burnout today (on a clean, private road), and at 1200 miles of mildly aggressive driving (thus you know about my opinion on break-in), I FINALLY had the tires squeal!

So, for those who believe that this tire model is quiet with wheelspin: are my tires an anomaly, or do these tires really need time to gain their full gripping ability?

(Note: my prior burnouts (on clean, private roads) produced lots of wheelspin but no noise. I could FEEL my tires more this time, it felt like there was more friction between the tires and road...)
