Hankook w404, 225/45/R17. Worked out pretty good, I'm definitely happy with them

Awesome, I was going to run those exact tires (but in a 225).. But I got impulsive last week and bought the Hankooks since Town Fair had them in stock

Ice racing on a frozen lake is sweet too. You should try that if you ever get a chance. But shouldn't this be in the show n shine section?

Looks like you had a good time, may I suggest mudflaps. No point messing up your nice paint. Great pics by the way.

It's an 05, I have the ACD.. Works very well, but most of the day I left it on 'Tarmac' just to get the rear end out .. You can definitely notice the difference between the 3 modes, especially on the street when you are attempting to stay in a straight line... not so much when you're racing and at WOT sideways most of the time..

what kind of difference do you feel on the street when you attempt to stay in a straight line? I am very curious, b/c I was watching the Best Motoring when they did the quarter mile testing they left in on snow mode when the road surface is dry...
