Haha, what you said makes the car fun for me. You can take it to it's limits, then play with them. If you're doing this in a standard scenario, I'd say you're right, but I have to be pushing the hell out of my car to do these things, and of course it's on purpose. My last vehicle spun on the 2-3 shift at 83 mph, and I never wrecked it; the tires were street tires with more than adequate grip when normal driving.
THAT SAID, once I get bored with the car, tires will be an upgrade because it will lift the limits considerably. I'll agree with you on that.
