Winter tires went on a couple days ago, then it got warm again

I was surprised to find out that in ~50 degree weather they have far less grip than balding Primacies. TCS light was on way more than usual...

But then it got cold and rainy today and I am a very happy camper!

Yeah - my MPSS tires are hating the cold rain here in Oregon. 300hp + Oregon fall = 2nd gear drifts in a straight line.

Yikes! I was in Portland this weekend and was definitely glad to have the winters on. I'm all for sliding, just not unexpectedly.

I keep f'ing up and posting on the FRS side...I installed my catted SRS FP/OP, I will be posting a review but the short of it is that everything lined up well and there is a slight difference in sound and improved throttle response...don't worry, I have a tune.

Opened the truck, pulled up the rubber tray and realized that I do have a spare tire. Satisfied ...

Switched teams

Trying out the #BRZMasterRace this time around following my accident.

'17 Yellow.Series... feels way more refined than my '13 FR-S -- I appreciate all the little changes!



I guess I'll be visiting this side of the forum more!

Yeah I had read the MPSS do well for a performance tire in the rain.

Thankfully it's dry as a bone here in the summers. Guess I'll find out next year.
