the correct answer is, you have to break them in. tires come out of the mold with release oil. you need to burn through that layer which requires either a quick burn out or driving on them for a good 50-100miles. just use 35-36psi and drive around normally (or do a quick launch with VDC off). even though they are nitto's, they should start gripping more.
