Fun isn't it. I love having to go 45 on the freeway.

An adventure in stupidity?

Sorry, I don't see the joy in your "setup." Good luck with it though.

I agree! My rear tires are close to blad, and I plan on enjoying them. Its pouring outside right now and I'm tempted to go find a open parking lot to play.

Well, I hope you bald S02 owners confine you amusement --- and in fact your driving ----- to areas off public streets where no other cars or obstacles are present. If you don't follow this advice, I hope your car and LIFE insurance payments are current, as you're going to need them!

Thanks,
Richard

I had some bald S02s on the freeway in pouring rain... felt the rear end get a bit skittish and had to slow down to 45mph... Sucked to have suvs and vans pass me!! However, It WAS fun in the rain and some small 4 way stop intersections in booneyville... Parking lot was the best though.

However, since I got my fuzions, they have excellent wet grip, and can easily slide out the tail in the rain with the right amount of steering input... and it's easy for them to grip again once you got off the throttle just a bit... feels a lot more secure

I hope this thread doesn't lead to a "I wrecked my S2000" thread.
