Turbo Tuner and 225 width winter tires?

ucla1995 · 10-24-2007, 09:11 PM

Would I be spinning the tires everywhere or would they still hook up? (normal aggressive driving, I'm not talking drag races here) Considering whether to buy now or next Spring when my summers go back on. Tia.

Yes, would my 335 with the Turbo Tuner overwhelm my 225 winter tires?

Ummmm

I tired out my Hankook Ipike winter tires the other day.

They are 225/40R17 on Beryon wheels.

It was dry out,, and well 3rd gear crusiing,, get on the gas and they spun, sucks

I hope winter is short this year, cause I dont see much fun driving the 335ic with winter tires.

Thats what I came up with. I have some kind of Jucie drink in my car also.

Just don't use all of the throttle.

Just take it out for the winter. Its not like the stock power is going to be too slow when you need it. This way if you take it out, you cant get into too much trouble unexpectedly.

I still have my Procede in, and have just gotten used to not getting into the boost. I have 235 Dunlop 3Ds, and they just cant hold traction at all. Its just something we have to deal with when it comes to being able to drive in the winter...
