Message : care. I have griped about the Kumho's squeeling around corners that my A520 Yoko's did not. Well, I looked at my speedo, and doing just 25 mph around a 90 degress corner, the Z was squeeling like a stuck pig, and the front end was "pushing" thru the corner sliding, and the back end was comming around. That was taking the corner agressively, but progressively, i.e. not just yanking the wheel once really hard to intentionally make the rear come around.... If any of you would like to go out and try taking a 90 degree corner at 25 mph and see what happenes with your tires and post we might be able to get an idea of the grip potential of differnt tires. Make sure you give mileage on your tires if you do. I have about 6000 miles on the Kumho's.

A little more squealing though. But, tires are going to sqeal anyways, it is the traction that is important.
