[QUOTE="dustin88lx, post: 12117223, member: 137828"] I had the same exact issue with 35lbs I couldn't get 130mph without feeling like I was towing a badly balanced trailer wanting to fishtail....They do get a little better when they wear down, because of how the tire is shaped right now it is a little worse but after some burnouts at the track and dropping the pressure to 32lbs they were incredibly better on the street.... As far as the tires go the difference for me is with the upgrades I have right now the factory tires...I wont even here the SC in 1st gear because the car cuts power so bad in second gear it comes in decent and 3rd it is sceaming.. With those ET street II's it would scream through every gear just due to the ammount of grip they were providing allowing the engine to use most of its power... On the drag strip I ran 16lb and I would still spin somewhat coming off the line but I still managed a 1.63 60ft time with them. That was dropping the clutch at 3500 with all the assists OFF... As far as longevity these tires wont last long at all....I prolly made about 15 passes on them and about a week and a half of street driving and im already cutting the wear blocks down...they will be a true slick before long :) I had to pull mine off because down here in florida where we get rain almost every day driving back from work running 70mph and road was just wet I picked up the throttle a touch to pass a car and my ass end almost passed me up.....not fun.....and if there is any standing water on the road forget about it its a death trap stay inside and wait it out....believe me I know...from experience [/QUOTE]
