Default I need more grip!
Below 40 degrees my S tends to get sideways even under moderate acceleration. I need the stickiest dry weather tire I can find Any suggestions? Also, would a suspension mod/upgrade be in order?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Well, It never occured to me that snow's were good on dry roads. I dont drive in snow I got a jeep for that. It seems the stock 02's are 'hard' and don't have lateral grip.
