New tire update.
Hi all. We took the GtC for about and 220 mile round trip ride to a car show and back with the new tires on the car. The Michlin 4S tires do really seem a LOT quieter and offer a notably smoother ride than the Continental tires.

I HAVE NOT had a chance to drive the car in autocross to see if there is any notable difference so I am ONLY talking about normal driving.

Katie

Did you launch it with the PS4s on? How is traction?
