Brenda Thomson Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I know I had the wrong tires on my car. Michelin run flats fairly new and all I got was tire-spin constantly. These things don't hook up at all. I almost did a complete 360 in turn #1 and had my foot off the gas. I'll know better the next time. I thought 345's would grip better, NOT! I have the same tires and mine wouldn't stick for anything! My tires are just a few weeks old. I miss the Good Year Eagle F1's. However, I am sure my purse will appreciate the extra 5,000 miles I will get out of these. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 I have the Michelin SS's on mine, 275/345 and as long as I kept the pressure below 34 they gripped pretty good. But the heat kept pumping the up and I would go sliding again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhatVette Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Ok Dwayne, here's the second run in HD, clicky>> I have to admit, the skid made for an exciting vid in the first one. If you clock the vid, you can check your lap time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dale68z Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Thanks Keith. I didn't realize how loud my car is and how pathetically slow I am compared to Casey in the white car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
