Message	I had Yoko A520's before and they were much gripier, but were louder and more $$. These Kumho's, I can hang the back end out on my NA thru any corner and modulate how far the back ends swings using the gas. This could be quiet terrifying in a TT if you got on the gas to much. I can also bark them in 2nd good, so I am sure you could really loose traction on a hard shift into 2nd on a TT....but if you just want some cheap tires then tehy are OK, but that is not what you want. OK, so I gave you a "what tire not to get" rather than what you wanted, but this is all I know :) Mike Yeah, I know mine's an N/A! :-) AIM name: my91z MSN name: my91z
