Thumbs up S0-3's and Ran, big thumbs up!

Wow, finally had my S0-3's in the rain and wow do they stick. I was going up to 90 and hitting the brakes, pretty much like when it's dry, on Highland Rd in Livermore and my car stuck like glue.

I then ran out on the freeway and some guy in a Ford Mustang Cobra saw me shoot down the rainy freeway and gave chase for about 20 seconds till he lost rear traction and was sitting at about 45 degrees from the normal while I just roared past him.

It wasn't a kill story.

No, not yet, I've been working like 16 hours a day, 6 days a week for 2 months. I haven't been reading Nasioc or I-club or going to meets or doing anything else except work and sleep. I am finally catching up a little bit and posted my wonderful ride in the rain yesterday as I drove between work sites.

The S0-3's are soooo good in both the dry and the rain, I'm almost afraid to try different tires because they won't live up to these.

I really need to roll my fenders - Really, but can't seem to coordinate with anyone who is willing to do it.

Rolling the fenders is pretty easy. You just need a wood bat, and a jack.

Ghetto, but it's free.

at tire rack the pirelli p zero nero m&s out performs the s03's slightly
anyone driven on both?
considering the pirelli cots 50 dollars less each tire...
