Swamp my tires are almost the same situation as yours. Almost no tread on he rear and with the fronts being med-low.

With regular street driving, hard s-4, s-5 shifts I can break traction, but before this would almost never occur. The tires feel far worse as they got older. I spent the entire second day becoming an expert on throttle control through almost every corner. Tire pressures became a issue, tried all sorts of combinations before leaving them at stock pressures cold.(which worked best....) Anyway, nearing the wear bar doesn't seem to work best on PS2s.

Just had some Hankook V12s mounted($750 after rebate on tirerack shameless plug), feel good so far, lets see how they handle extremes.
