    Continentals or perellis.

    Have had both in 14's and are good, had p3000's in 175/70r13 and were awesome, make nice smoke when doing static burnouts to.


    Don't get Bridgestone aspec's, delaminate real fast.

    155 kenda's i run them on my ke70 with absolute confidence can go from sticker to dead without heat cycling and have very minimal delam as long as not presoaked (presoaking gives them hot and cold spots which isnt fun) I also like hankooks they are great with a presoak in the 165/60/13 a pre soak doesnt seem to affect them as much

    I found the Pirellis to be really slippery, make good smoke though, also thought they wore out a bit quick.

    lets say a presoak is what you use when your daily has a 4k and you want to do second gear in the dry .... painting or soaking your tyres in the slippery shit is a presoak for example ,
    diesel (im against this i dont ike it has no grip consistancy and feels like balls),
    used diff oil (the best i have used very predictable grippy enough you can go balls deep)
    truck wash/liquid degreaser (is cheap at $9 for four litres and your bound to have some soaks in quickly but isnt much more slippery tahn a normal tyre )
    I'd say i didnt run these sort of additives on the street but i wouldnt dare hit a track with with any of the above on my tyres as i know how frustrating it is hitting an oil patch run after run, but i do not advise pre soaking your everyday wheels as braking distance etc. must be adjusted and the car will not sit still i would definatley not run soaked tyres in the wet - liability is none

    you mean 60 psi and that wont get you to the top of second ..... be happy with your slightly sideways 4k at 30 kph
