you don't have to explain the dragon to me lol I know how demanding and abusive it is on tires.

:tiphat:

And it gets worse when you do it every Saturday. I've learned you can do an 18 minute run not going above 45 in 6th though lol.

It's a great thing, but also a terrible thing. I've not gotten over 7k miles on any tires I've had so far. However, I'm surprised at how well my Carbotech's are doing for 20k miles of hard abuse.

And finally my last gripe. The clutch is kinda lazy. Like after depressing, I mean me pushing all the way to the bottom, it takes half a second to come back. Very noticeable when trying to shift through gears. But it's going away, :bowrofl:

Warm regards everyone!

welcome!

may need to change the clutch fluid. my clutch would stick horribly as the car warmed up from hard driving. changed the fluid to Motul and its been good since. i think its easy to boil the clutch fluid on this car.

I went to 295 in rear.

Oddly my oem size rear tires (275) wore terribly on the inside edge. Switched to 305s and no alignment/suspension adjustments and it handles like a dream and the rears wear beautifully to where my 200 tread wear rated re-11s surpassed my 300 tread wear pss tires.

Do you think the 295's will do the same thing that your 305's do as far as even tread wear? They are on the sport 19s

i would assume that it would help but someone who runs 295 rears should chime in for that answer. I've only ran oem 275 and 305 so far out back.

Have you checked your lug nuts? Just an idea...

if he's experiencing the wobbling effect at a specific speed, then it most likely has something to do w/ the harmonics @ that speed....

i would think either toe alignment, bushings, or how the wheel(s) were counter-balanced.

It's most likely alignment, Go get that and some coils youll feel safe :)
