I got a set of 16" Pirelli Winter Carving Edge tires on steelies. The tires are still new but they are slipping sometimes when turning and then accelerating. I notice the traction control is coming on. Is this normal? I don't have much experience with RWD cars. Or do the tires need more breaking in? or these tires bad? The shop recommended these but I kinda want to send them back.
