Handling at high speeds??
read your owners manual
"When driving under the above vehicle conditions at sustained high speeds above 160 km/h (100 mph), in countries where such speeds are permitted by-law, inflate the front tires to 260kPa (2.7kgf/cm2 or 2.6bar, 38 psi) rear tires to 210 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2 or 2.1bar, 31 psi) provided that it does not exceed the maximum cold tire inflation presure molded on the tire sidewall"
owners manual pg 237

I was stupid on saturday night/sunday morning
It was 1 am I was driving my friend home. We are on these hilly thin roads in a really wooded area. It rained a couple hours early so I guess the roads were a bit wet. I was going like 80 before we hit the curves, then this sharp curve came out of nowhere, I went into a spin, did a 540, it was so freaky. The only reason I can think of that I didnt go off road and hit a tree or go into a ditch, or another car in either lane be coming, is divine intervention

I would say IF you want to go that fast, get better tires and lighter wheels. Even getting a better tire, say a Bridgestone S-03, will help out immensly. If you think they are too expensive, then you shouldn't be going that fast. As for the wheel either being out of round or wobbling, you need to have a dealer swap that out fast!
Careful all! Don't need any high-speed deaths here...
