I go buy.... max tire contact = max braking, cornering (at "normal" speeds)
I'm an old school autocrosser so I tend to feel what changes are doing something good or bad. Any of my non-official testing is done at any speeds my vehicles are capable of or the road conditions are capable of. I haven't been on a track in many years and don't know if my current ride would be so great as the Plus wheels/tires slow down the acceleration too much to make it a competitive vehicle. Maybe some day when someone figures out how to read & write to the Prius computers and I can crank up the electric torque in the software

I didn't come on here to attack anyone, so don't take any comments I make serious.
