oem sizes. I tried the 245/285 combo and it was a disaster. The car felt so wishy washy. Lost all its steering response and feel. Felt like 4 flat tires compared to stock for me

The 255/295 on the right size wheels feel just like stock in terms of response and feel , in fact slightly enhanced, BUT the grip is OFF THE CHARTS

I absolutely love the 255 (Pilot Super Sport) front tires on my car! They're so responsive, but at the same time they also feel stable & inspire confidence at high speeds. My rears have only been up sized to 265.

What a 48s tease man!!! How'd you like the NASCAR banking? That transition from the apron was rough at Atlanta Motor Speedway, didn't seem too harsh there, which is nice!

My issues is corner exit over steer on my tighter tracks out here. The rear steam rollers just help to never get any wheel spin The PSS in the front would probably help neutralize the handling ( without the F sport rear bar)

should be ideal. In fact you can go 255/285 with those wheels

Sorry zach and tammer, it was my dash cam and didn't have my gopro then. It only takes few clips due to memory restriction. But on the roval, i did 140 and i know i can go more, but too chicken coz the cars feels different, it feels floaty and i feel like i was about to loose control of the car....so i got scared...lol.. Thanks to quarius (jeff) for the amazing shot. this is me and bnizzle87

Great shots buddy !!! Feel free to add any and everything to the thread. I was topping out at almost 130 and the car felt fine even on the brakes but on an oval thats a different story.

That one time when we put the pressure on an Aventador for 3 laps at High Plains raceway.

Mike,

Where's the video of you chasing that Aventador? It looks like you have a GoPro set-up on the roof no??

LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting this

I always carry 2 extra batteries in case. I like to use my blue tooth to connect the device to my phone so I can start it right when we start moving and it KILLS the battery life so fast. Almost learned the hard way. It would kill me not to have video to watch when I got home.

They have little kits on amazon for cheap
