I just got my new tires/wheels on last night and i must say im kind of disappointed at the new tires. Theyre $350 per tire and i expected them to get amazing traction. They are BFG Comp T/A's 295/35/18. I got on it from like a 5-10mph roll and i spun all of 1st,all of 2nd, part of 3rd. I did this a couple times with the same outcome. Then on the highway at like 60-70mph i down shifted to 3rd & nailed it,lost traction again! WTF! Anyone else running this tire?

Anyway... heres a teaser pic i took with my phone this morning... ive got the sportlines installed in the front, but my rears still have the FRPP springs. I'll post a thread with more pictures once i get the sportlines on..
