Good Tires For FI?

G37sHKS · 09-24-2011, 02:32 PM

So what tires are you guys using after installing SC or TT

I have PS2 275 on the rear and im having a serious bad traction all the way till 4th gear (7AT here)

Please dont say Slick or Semi slick tires, I drive the car daily so i dont wanna change tires every month.

RE-11's

Bridgestone pole position s-04

superchargedg · 09-24-2011, 06:11 PM

Toyo r888 for the rear and you will get traction if they make the size you need.

Brazilbro · 09-25-2011, 01:27 AM

I run R-11's.. Depending on the temp I can get decent traction in 2nd and full traction in 3rd.

I just got the 1st pic that came up with the tire, so he could see the tire tread.

Red__Zed · 09-25-2011, 04:12 PM

Are you primarily concerned with straight line traction or turning?

Michelin Pilot Super Sport

Have them on now and love them. Can't speak for FI power though. Just mentioning it as a possible contender with great traction.

Fatter rubber?

I can still break the 305s loose from time to time.

It's not like there is a magic tire that solves this 'problem'. Such is life when you make more power. The only thing that makes cars like a 458 Italia hook up well is the advanced traction control software/systems.

May not be what you want, but Micky Thomson just released a 305/35/19 in the ET street series...
