Thanx y'all!

Trying out some Michelin Pilot Sports (275/40 & 335/35 summer tires). I can't fault the Nittos, except the drag radials were extremely poor in the wet (and it seems I end up in the wet waaaay more than I ever did at a drag strip).

These tires get very good reviews on either wet or dry. Besides, I find TWISTIES is what I enjoy more (less breakage) than drag racing. (Good thing too, since I'm on a 'mountain run' every time I go anywhere here in the Ozarks!)

I put Pilot Sports on the '95 Paul and I really liked them. No balancing problems at all. Got them at Costco; good deal and excellent service. Wheel torque as others have mentioned is 100 ft lbs.--Bob
