Default Testing Suspension

Well, took my car up to GMR (Glendora Mountain Road) in Azusa today. my tC is fitted with hotchkis springs and TRD rear sway. The handling is nice, its tight on turns which is the good part And now to the bad part...the stock tires...wow, what can i say...sliding left and right with stock tires makes me sad...Scion really dropped the ball on choosing the Bridgestone Potenzas , can't wait to get the money to get stickier tires

ya been on that road a lot.

i use to take my TC there a lot on weekday nights but i stopped... got to expensive for me (gas)

but the stock tires just wunt hold.

after 5-6 turns the tires are too warm and start to slide. its horrible.

i went up with S.tech's progress sway.
car oversteers which i love and is very responsive :D (even with sticker tires)
