Default What a Difference....

I have a set of 245/50/16 Hercules Tires on my car.. I knew they seemed like a soft tire, with an awesome thred pattern, but I never realized until lastnight how good they really were....

Ususally I can stage the car up and it will hold at 11 psi without spinning, when when you let off she will burn for days....

But lastnight I put my stock rims back on, to harrass the city, with 215/65/15 Eagle II's .. well well.. the car would hit 5psi and start spinnin the tires... i cant get over the difference for sure!

I have a little video of one of the burns...

I can do that without holding the brakes.

Line locks and T-brakes are fun, but the video shows the brake lights on while car is moving the whole time. Let off the brakes! What are you doing?
