Back to Stock

Well, the height is back to stock on the back with 27.1 and stock size on the front with 27.0 out of the 255/40R19's.
Ordered some new soles for my shoes, 255/40R19 for the front and 295/35R19 for the rear. Went back to the CONTINENTAL EXTREME CONTACT SPORT, Loved the DW's and this is the replacement tires for them.
I will just be glad to get the Michelins off the car. No more No Seasons for me and I did not like them in the rain, my balding DW's did better in the rain than the Michelins.
See how far I can push the Built in G meter up, 1.21 to the Left and 1.17 to Right right now and the rear is what breaks traction first.

Now to go put the Blowfish Shifter Bracket on and get ready for a trip to the Mountains this weekend. See what tires with a little less sidewall do for the corners

What didn't you like about your Michelins? I've always had very good luck with mine no matter what vehicle I had.

No Grip out of them, I kind of do a 4 wheel drift in the corner. Might be the fact they are A/S 3 also.

You are comparing all-season tires to summer tires. Of course the summer tires have more grip.

Like I said, going back to stock. Stock Height and Summer only like the Performance Package V6 came with.
From what I was told and by more than 1 source were the Michelins AS3's were the ones to go with for All Season to try and stretch the season. They suck also. Although they did still pass the Hemi's on the Hill.
