With boost... probably not a huge difference in straight line traction. You may want to consider the RE-11 since you're putting down so much more power than a N/A car.

Then again guys with high HP cars are running tires like the PSS and S-04 with success, so it might work for you. Hard to tell until you try. ![]()

$892 for 2 x 265 and 2 305 S0-4s.... I really cant even complain with that. I really want to give it a go...atleast get these for streeting and make get 18" track wheels and tires next summer. Sweet lord these prices are nice. I think I will be okay...supposedly my Ultrac Sessentas are on par with PSS tires and they hold traction pretty well. I mean I still do 2nd gear rolling burnouts but its more like some slight wheel hop not actually laying down a sheet of rubber. Im rambling. Anyways I may get these.

You could run a 275/35 up front if you want.
Also, I've read that your current tires are comparable to the PS2 (but still not quite as good), which the PSS blows out of the water. PS2 is an old tire, and most of the modern summers outperform it now, including the S-04.

Yea I am looking forward to spring, too. Though I am enjoying winter right now with my Alpin PA4s. The 245 square setup really helps with the balance of the car, and for a winter tire they have tremendous dry, cold weather grip.

That is really what matters. Snow traction is great but the small percentage that it actually sticks to the ground is minimal. I need to get some new A/S's for the LGT of mine. CANNOT wait to take that car out in the snow. Never had an AWD vehicle until now so Im mildly in love with being in grip city 24/7.

Yeah that's why I always go with performance winters. Around here 95% of my winter driving is on dry but cold pavement. I want something that performs well there and can still get me through light-moderate snow/ice if the need arises. I have used the Dunlop Wintersport M3 and Pirelli SottoZero Serie II in the past with great results. So far so good for the Michelins... the true test will be when we get some snow to play around in.

Im personally looking at these for the LGT
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....7H452&i1_Qty=4 Been getting some good reviews for a less pricey tire. Much better than the Yoko ENvigors(sp?)

The s-04's were what I had on my car last before the pss. I liked them, I honestly wouldn't be able to tell you which where which if I had to do a blind testing of the two. Good tire in my opinion, especially for the price. When I bought the pss's there was only a $75 difference but it looks like the pss's price has caught up to the trend.
