Post how you like them when you've had a chance to put a few miles on. Super happy with mine on the G and the GTO.
Gotcha. Makes sense.
I've put a couple hundred miles on them now. They're really nice tires. I've never tried PSS tires but these are nice. Nicer than the Nitto Motivos I had on it FOR SURE. Much more confident, less likely to lose the tail end under hard cornering, but still really predictable.
Anybody here used Firehawk Indy 500s? Just bought a set and curious to see how they do under hard driving on our cars... if nobody knows maybe the only way to find out is some on-track testing!

^Famous last words I suppose, for all the gory details read this......I need to use a tire depth gauge more often, obviously my eyes deceive me.

My daily now is a bone stock 06 GTO M6. With all that I put myself through modding the G I made a pledge to myself to keep the Goat 99% stock. I bought it almost 3 years ago now and it had 27K miles on it when I picked it up. 
Alignment has always been in factory spec and the tires wore very evenly across the tread. I'd say more but read through my thread above, it's got all the gory details.

, Infiniti somehow didn't realize that the G35 is staggered, so it turned out they only had 4 front michelins lmao, not all of them. Excited to have a higher quality all season tire on it.
