Car is slower with winter wheels
did anyone notice a big difference in power and acceleration after they put on their winter wheels. i just installed my 17" blizzak lm-22s and my car feels really slow now. i know winter tires are not meant to be driven fast on but my acceleration is really slow and my 0-60 feels sluggish. i thought these were high performance winter tires. is it because i still need to break them in?

It's intentional to keep you from gettin a lil too freaky with the throttle when you shouldn't.
