Wayne seems to love the Talons. I always see him drifting on them and grip pretty decently.

I’mma try them too if I get back into a 240sx. Can’t afford brand new Federals all the time =(

why would you pay 100+ per tire when it only last 4-5 laps

stupid in my opinion

run shit tires and drop tire pressure

25-30psi is sick

Tread wear rating will also help on how long they last…i did 3 competitions on the same 2 tires and only after alot of donuts after that a small chunk fell off…and im still gonna use for next year practice. lol
