you totaly cant just trust the tire guy...good traction and good tire wear DONT mix...soft tires have good traction but bad wear...and vice versa.
post up what the name of the tires are and the rateings.

There cooper tires. and they hook up really good. I havent tried any launches cuz they will prolly jsut spin since its so cold out and i dont want waste rubber on the street warming them up. I'll save that for the track.

TO ALL PEOPLE!!!!
the weather at milan looks good for saturday.
if your planin on goin to the event at milan on the 28th heres the event in a nut shell...
plan on being at the track AT 10AM!.
so any pre-meets and such need to happen early....the motown mussle event is only going till like 12 or 1 then normal milan test and tune happens so we can stay for a while and get tons of runs in!!!
its gonna be $40 for the motown mussle part of the day and possibly more to stay for the rest of the test and tune event....not to sure about that
PM me or Tim if you have any questions.
EDIT-----
there is a thred about this event on our
SouthEastEcotecEnthusiast forum...links in my sig.

treadwear=380
traction=A
temp=A
the bigist issue i see is the fact that your speed rateing is SOOOOO much lower then OEM...not a good idea.
stock was a "W" at 168mph...now your at an "H" wich is 130...
so keep an eye on your speed there kid....stay under 120 or so.

LOL come to think about it. You prolly just saved my life. I have a thing with speeding. im in a hurry i speed and if its the Hwy way, everything is like a lil blur, for as fast i can get it to go. so now i know not to go over 120. really limits me, but to stay alive. i guess. i can still go to the track. Yes. whats everyone doing after movie? and how late is it gonna be. But i did know that the stock rating was like 170 or so. so dont think i didnt. the sales men that sold me that car told me. lol what a nice guy
