Just going to take it for an MOT, see what it fails on and start working through the list. Some are more obviously than others.

I've seen a video of this car spinning at 60mph in the dry, so yep, would agree.

I don't think the car will take any bigger than a 275.

Totally agree with that, ran R888 and a lot of other grippy rubber on the BMW and I would say the Toyo wasn't that good compared to some. The Nankang AR1 seemed to grip better for instance.

Does anyone, or has anyone heard of people running Mickey Thompson Street (or similar) on the road without issue?
