like i do it everywhere! the tires only screech a very annoying sound! and like b4 i remember my old tires would gather a **** load of rocks on em from the tires getting sticky, these dont do it that much. i guess there just cheep tires.

on my 16's i had BFG g force sports and they were real good! sold em for cheep then i bought the 10 spokes and i looked at the ratings for the htrzII and they were really good so thats why i went with those. right now if i punch it in first gear 1k rpm as soon as i hit the powerband i think 2,800 the tires break loose and will hit the rev limiter. if i dump the clutch it will spin pretty much through 2nd and end in 2nd, so yea there not the greatest but i mean they should make some decent marks,, shouldent they? but honestly i dont like them, when i am turning hard in 2nd and accelerating the rear end gives out easy
they wont hurt its mostly for wheel hop issues though but it also helped give me a lot more traction especially in hot weather. they wont help you make darker marks if thats what ur trying to accomplish

i have the same problem with my coopers, i do a huge brake stand then let out of it and spin the tires for 50 feet then i go back and look at the marks and its like a 1 foot really dark mark followed by a 4 foot mark you can barely see, it sucks.
so when i lowered my 99 i did the relocation brackets same time.
