ok so i need to get ready for some autoXing, and i would like to get my new Falken Azenis RT-615 ready for the track.

so what should i do. go to a parking lot and just drive agressive, or couple of nice burnouts, well thats if i can lose grip.

or do i even need to do this.

sorry for making such a stupid post but im just very very exided. so many new mods, that i feel like im driving a diff car.

thx

Are they brand new? 10-15 minutes of figure 8's in a parking lot should evenly wear off the release agent and bring the tires up to temp nicely. Then unmount them and let them sit for 24-48 hours on their side to let them cool.

they are brand new, i installed them 20 min ago, and came back to school.

Egz, what do you mean by "on their side", can i just let the car sit all night on jack stands with the tires on the car? because i have to leave at 5:45am from my house

thx

On stands would work. You don't want any weight on them while they are hot, so they cool evenly, and don't get any flat spots. Its critical right now to ensure the bonds form properly.
