I'm actually fairly conservative in my driving style. I don't track my car, I don't auto-x. And I get a bigger kick out of nailing it in a straight line than I do from cornering at the limit. Now, that's probably going to change once I get my PS2s on, because part of the reason I take it easy around corners is that I think the OEM Potenzas are complete crap and I have no confidence in them. But yeah, the stock 19" tires only have a 140 TW rating. You'd think that they'd at least provide decent grip if they're going to wear so quickly. Bridgestone OEM tires FTL.
