Just had a canyon run with my 330i!

I have to say our car handles very well to its limit. I stayed on 2nd the whole time until straight-aways and I would redline and it would shift to 3rd. For the whole run, I averaged 11 MPG and 43 MPH hahaha. Also, Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s are great!

Canyons makes my car feel more agile and lighter then it really is. I used to think that my car had it all and i didnt know why people complained about the weight problem. Then i went on track and realized just how big of a boat it is and that it felt like i was dragging 3300+ pounds around the track.

But yea, PS2's are great tires. Just be aware that PS2's will wear extremely quickly if driven hard on. I had a friend that made his ps2's last 25,000+ miles and a friend that killed his PS2's in less then 10,000 miles.

Got it Law I figured I am going to save some $$ and get some Falken FK452s when these PS2s retire so might as well enjoy the sporty moments while they last! I feel bad running freeways with those tires, it's like driving a M3 below 3000RPM all the time!
