I like everything about my Cobalt SS/SC except for the fact that it's FWD!

The time in my sig was with a 2.3 60ft time.

There are alot better tires out there for the cost of Pirelli's.

I have P-Zero Rosso's on my Cobalt and I hate them.

judging by his trap speed it was a lack of traction...

My car can spin them through 1st, 2nd and into 3rd if I want to.

Belive me it's lack of traction.

Sometimes no name brand tires work just fine, or lower level named brand. My friend got some no name brand tires for his 1972' stang and loves them , says they are the best bang for the buck and he can barely do burn outs now.
