The Fit is pretty nasty on a tight course... my little brother had one, that thing was a blast to take in the twisties.
Haha, my cars are only street cars. The only time I needed tires frequently was when I carved the santa monica canyons like 12+ yrs ago every weekend. Lasted like 3k miles which wasnt too bad. The Fit needs LSD and another 150hp.

Onzedge- any inital reviews and picts on the car?

Here you go, Mister Kenchan:




I just mounted them this morning so forgive their lack of tire dressing appearance. My initial impressions, after some testing in the parking lot of an abandoned business, are:

1. Significant steering feel/feedback improvement -- very crisp and much more precise

2. Quieter than stock Potenzas (maybe my imagination)

3. Very difficult to break traction (VDC off)

4. Handling is excellent

I wish I were more articulate today, but my clients ran me to mental exhaustion this week.

More later.
