[QUOTE="senderofan, post: 14222112, member: 149422"] Realistically......I probably put on @ 50 ( gentle ) miles of street use. For me....slicks are not legal here...so if I was to be involved in an accident...I would bear 100% of the responsibility. As far as drivability issues.....Only at the track when I was down a few pounds in pressure. I went from 29....to @ 20 over night. But the temps had dropped significantly as well. I hadn't run the slicks....and thought the pressures should be fine since it was less than 24 hours since I checked them cold. Went on the track......very uneasy floating type feeling. Not at all crisp...which concerned me. Once I brought the pressures up....it was Amazing! Great transmission of feeling...in the seat of the pants...very crisp handling and waaaaaay more grip. This allowed me to carry more speed and drive deeper into the corners. As far as trailering....Yes with slicks. I wouldn't want to drive 3 hours through back country on slicks. I can't recall what your suspension upgrades are??? But you'll want to make sure your set up is ready for squared slicks. With a stock set up...I believe you'd be prone to snap oversteer. Wish you well.....keep us posted on your progress, Wayne [/QUOTE]
