Finally I understand

what you fellas mean when you say the stock tires suck. i was coming home and i saw the light was green a good distance away with no one in front of me so i floor it then take a 90 degree left at about 30-35 and halfway through the turn the rear tires jus slide over i was like wtf was that i mean i dont normally turn aggresively but damn i'd expect for the tires to handle the lil abuse i give them

i don believe in changin sumthin that is still fairly new so i probably should start peelin out to wear out these tires

That's weird, I have 6,000miles and they already look 50% done. I don't do that much hard acceleration...in fact most of those miles have been trips out to NYC, Penn State, Charleston...so all highway driving.

Don't know what's going on there.
