Also keep in mind that the tire pressures on this class of tire is different than a typical street tire. Aim for ~35psi hot. (Use the tire display, so useful for this.) If you let them get into the 40 psi range they don't stick as well, and will slide more (and squeal more). (This is based on my experience, and my brother who races them with Lemons cars. Your experience may differ.)
Great information, Thank you! I did some experimenting on an old industrial road yesterday and I could not get these things to break loose even in 55 degree weather. (35psi) I’m guessing Tire Rack filled them to 40 but it’s been very chilly since they arrived.
