So far, they feel significantly tighter and responsive. In an empty parking lot (not public and I was not trespassing) they were highly resistant to my attempts to break traction. I like them quite a bit, but don't have much experience with them yet.

I am sure it is, just never heard of that term as it sounds lame. How much can you really carve when there are traffic on the road and stupid cops everywhere? I am not saying you need to try a track day to be good at driving, but you sure do need to have a few to know the difference between what's a good, really good and a great tire.

I was reading the description that they used the tire in the lower classes in ALMS, is it really the same tire or just similar technology.

Simple: you go very early in the morning. There are a number of extremely technical canyon roads in my area that are challenging even at the speed limit. If you don't think it is fun because it "sounds" lame, you must not have tried it.

Of course the street is not the place to go 10/10ths nor is it ideal to test a car's setup and components but I wasn't aware those were qualifications for having fun.

prius - do you like batteries?

I like it as much as I like gasoline.

You are being almost as cynical as Importconvert!

I never said you can't have fun, I am just saying there are things you will never know because you didn't try racing/tracking the car. It doesn't make you a bad driver (I am plenty bad), but there are things that you don't know rather you like to admit it or not.

some things :superghey:are best left unknown. :tup:

onzedge - so how do you like the tires after motoring today? :D

OK -- I have 400 or so miles on them now and am highly impressed. The first couplel of days the tires were settling down and a little "bumpy". Now, they are very smooth.

Cornering is significantly improved over stock and I have driven in wet and dry. I am convinced these were the way to go.

sounds good, onzedge! :tup:

Tire break in is around 500 miles give or take, they should grip better then level out til the tread is gone.

I am still liking these very much.

considering they are lighter weight than the RE050A's i might seriously consider these next time around. :p

You should. I wish I could justify two sets of wheels/tires so I could alternate between the PSS and S04 PP's. :tup:

Congrats on new tires!!

How are you liking the tires? I am probably going to get these in two weeks myself.

Thanks for the info. I plan on picking up a set for my G.

I think it is a good choice. Let us know what you think.
