My choice for that wouldve been the Titan 7 T-S5, they are SEXY AF. But if thats the case...

Like I said my goal is to have a fun DD. Improvement upon the stock, better acceleration...etc.
It's easy to overtire this car. Remember how you bought a fun light sports car that didn't have a ton of power, with decades of chassis engineering expertise of multiple companies with trophy upon trophy of race heritage?

It's not a powerful race car, it doesn't have gobs of power to turn the biggest heaviest trendy instagram famous 19x12.5" wheels people put on them for some reason.

Unless you're making a bunch of extra power, try your hardest to not add extra weight at the corners. It makes a difference.

Also idk why people are saying to get a tire better than a PSS. I think the S-04 and PSS are wonderful tire choices at the top tier of a summer tire before you end up with a tire meant to stand up on the track.
