Message	yoko A008P's or the BF gforce TA KD/KDW's...something real sticky but with hard sidewalls to retain good cornering capabilities. The problem is that there is always going to be a compromise...road race sticky compound=great dry weather perf but scary in the rain + short treadlife. drag radials=awesome hook up but crappy cornering due to soft sidewalls and also scary in the wet. normal z rated and w rated just dont have the traction necessary to launch or cars w/out tons of spinning. Personally i would spend the bucks for Bridgestone PP S02's and racelogic traction control system to limit wheel spin 1990 Twin Turbo 5spd Stillen Stage XI+ "No Show,All GO" 1999 Maxima SE 5spd ECZA member #0314 ..."If it doesnt make it faster, I dont care"...yellowZXTT
