good tires
wow, tell me 2 months ago that running high grip compound tires for drifting is the best thing to do and i would be like, well sir you are a fucking idiot.
but after driving a car with finely tuned suspension and roll cage... even with only 140hp.. with sticky ass 17's in the rear, it slides like no other1!!!
you have so much control with good rear tires, you can control your angle so much better, bring it back when u want to, and can u say manji at 65 mph (side to side down a straight) with fucking ease!! i mean shit.. like i wasnt even trying.
just some heads up to u guys who run junkyard tires in the rear.

I'm still going to use junkers to start on dry land, and move my way up. This has worked before, and it keeps my operating costs down

I think this is what Evan meant to say

haha yeah, i remember when i met tony shultz a while back (black s14 that was rippin up dday1) he was teaching me about all that. much greater control, but it just sucks they burn away so fast, they get expensive quick. i have to run used tires or i cant run period... you and your damn sponsorship! grrrr!
regina, i would try out those es100s first, i burned through a pair at dday and i just didnt like them in the back... excellent tires for keeping traction, but the breakaway just isnt predictable enough for me.
