The tires were originally replaced under warranty by Pirelli. 3 of the 4 tires would not produce an acceptable balance when road force balanced. The thought from some of the HC guys is the tires may be spinning on the rim. I don't think there is enough traction with this car to warrant this claim but I suppose its possible given the weight of the vehicle and power. If we road force again, I will mark the wheel/tire to rule that out.
