| I recently got back from SpecialtyZ with a new Blitz SBC iD -- and started having trouble with traction under WOT. A lot of trouble. I searched and found this very helpful info by maglito:
[ http://twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1746345 ] Based on his post I bought two Falken RT615 for the rear wheels from the local Big-O. I drove normally for 100 miles to break them in. Then, at the perfect time, I put them to the test. WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT. ZERO traction loss in any gear and after shifting, other than the nicely satisfying 1-2 chirp that lets you know all is well in the world. And there's a local kid with a brand new S2000 who's just a bit less happy with his purchase. P.S. Big-O air-wrenched my wheels to 100 lbs. When I asked the fellow to hand torque to 72 he said "can't do that for safety reasons." =_= I had to intervene with the manager.
