Awhile back I posted about maybe needing a new clutch after it slipped on hard 1-2 shifts. LMAO @ myself, it wasn't the clutch slipping it was the damn ES100's spinning. I had the windows down while I tried some quick shifts this weekend and sure enough it was the damn tires breaking loose. The weather has been pretty cold too so... Figured you guys might need a laugh at my expense. :D

 

yeah always blame the car itself


j/k

 

funny. ownage by the es100's.

 

my es100s break loose on 1-2 shifts alot, but they hold their ground in the corners.

 

reason #125 to not buy cheap tires...

 

ES-100's are probably one of my favorite tires I've ever bought. They may not grip the best in a 1-2 shift, but everything else they do very well. Yeah you could by the Bridgestones (I've had two sets of S03's on my 300ztt), but when you compare the price ~500.00 set to the es-100's $266.00 to the door, it's hard to pass them up.

Except for that time you're cut off in traffic and need to brake really hard and NOW, or go a little too fast around a turn ...

Yeah, so let's all go buy some A032R's and then we can have some nice expensive tires. j/k

I bought ES100's about a week ago and like them so far. I drive around town and to work everyday, what the hell do I need to waste money on tires for. They last less than a year for me anyways.

I'll save my money and spend it on the biz' 'nitches yo.

Boy do I miss those ASU biz'nitches

 

They came with the car and they do grip well. Just can't believe how easy they break loose on the 1-2, sometimes the needle shoots to 8k on a clean, quick shift. Glad it's the tires and not the clutch though. I was laughing at myself for an entire day!
