i recently had S03s put on my rear wheels on my o4 coupe at wheel works. i have a feeling their alignment job was a bit sketchy. i notice that my vdc will kick in easier compared to before. i was wondering if anybody knows if this is becaues of a bad alignment job, or if my front tires suck too much compared to my rears or what?!?! thanks for any help!

 

how many miles do you have on your new S03's? You might have some
release lube still on the surface of your S03's.

what is your current alignment measurements?

 

hmm ill have to dig up the alignment print out. i am sure their readings are in spec, but i dont know how accurate they are.

i havent even filled up my tank yet since i got my tires. i guess ill let them break in more? how long is the breakin period for tires?

 

500 miles

 

break-in duration depends on how you drive... i usually break mine in
within 25miles. under normal driving, could take as
much as 100 miles or so.

The set I had on my old WRX broke in within 5 miles... car started to
get real loose and drifted while I was going into the expressway
entrance ramp so just floored it and did a zero counter into the
expressway...it was that or hit the wall, basically. a tad bit of
tire smoke and it was good to go. gripped like glue after that.
