Tires

Hello all!

Just curious what road tires you all have had good luck with? The Corsas seem to break away too easily?

Thanks,

Benjamin

Corsa's tend to heat cycle over time and get hard losing grip. With some heat in them there still better than just about anything else that specs for the car. Their availability is now problematic as well as the stratospheric price.

Is it the front breaking away or the rear thats breaking away? If it's the front the tires are shot. If it's the rear it's a horspower problem.

Jim,

That makes sense, they seem to be good when I am driving for awhile. It's the stop start in town driving where I think they just cool down too much to get grip. At 1/4 throttle the rears break away. I'm pushing 600hp/575lbs so I know that plays a significant role. I am going to burn through these in no time so was curious what others have put on their black series. Definitely going to plus one size when i do buy new tires. Thanks!

Benjamin
