I’m ok with the skinny tires, especially an actual good tire like the Michelin PS4. [emoji3]

Even with sub 200hp to the wheels,it's still easy to whip the tail out. Once you put on 225 or wider,you'll notice a significant difference in grip. I know first hand,because that's exactly what I did and I feel the difference,and I'm positive that other can confirm the same.
Now imagine the same narrow tire width with 20+ more hp and more torque. Maybe the new tires have more grip,but I feel like this car shouldn't come with anything thinner than a 225 out of the box.
I always felt like from the engineers perspective,to expect the buyers of this car to all be able to drive this car at 10/10 and be capable of controlling it in a slide in corners,vs having wider,more grippy tires where everyone can control it,is asking a whole lot,but that's just me.
