Tires slip

Depends on your budget. If you have the cash to spend, I suggest Bridgestone RE-11. If a bit tight, Hankook Ventus V12. I've had both, and they're excellent, though on

Are you sure the tires are slipping? Your brake fluid may be a little bit low which can cause the light to come on under "high" Gs.

Absolutely, my rear keeps going sideways, very annoying.

What tires are you running right now? Also, what size and pressure?

What size RE-11 would you get for stock sports package rims? Tirerack doesn't list them when specifying rubber for OEM wheels, but does carry them in a variety of sizes.
