Tires spin without squeal when broken loose

And the sarcasm is necessary because.....???? 800 miles should be adequate to remove any tire film and break them in.

Put my wife in your passenger seat - then you'll get enough squeals to last you a lifetime!







(Does that come across as a bit dirty?)






ps - don't take 355890 seriously - he's a Burnley supporter

I think he is adding the sarcasm because you have only driven your car 800 miles and trying to chirp tires in 2nd; which means you have to be driving like a bat out of hell rather then driving the manufactured suggested break in period. ( break in period for engine, not tires.)

Low tread wear tires are pretty quiet most of the time. Pretty much the only time you'll get them to squeal at all is to get them hot and then expose them to severe lateral slides (auto-x, bad track driving). Even then they won't squeal anything like a higher tread-wear tire will.

No sarcasm intended.

I would have at least given the vehcile it's due and allow the 1,200 miles to click off before giving it a real go.
