heheh kill story
so a silver RX8 is riding my ass and im in my dads 02 monte SS, he pulls up next to me at a light n hes lookin over n hes maybe a half car length ahead of me and i inch up even with him and turn off the traction control, the light turns green and i floor it and roast the tires and he takes off as well, i pulled about a car length ahead before the lanes turn back into one and got off it. wat a nice end to an evening  i just read up on them cars, 232hp and under 3100 lbs vs my monte thats like 3800lbs and 200hp....go figure?

Yea, it has more hp than the monte, but the monte has 225 tq compared to the rx8's 170ish i think.

Rice them? Adding power to an import doesnt neccessarily mean you have to rice it...
RX8's are nice cars, but they make their power in the high RPM bands.
Good kill though!

My Lumina is also on stock suspension (with 190k miles on the springs) and I only have 215 section tires. Brando sucks at the driver mod.

snow tires have a softer compound...and youre RWD to begin with, thats a big advantage. you just suck at driving
edit: last time i saw them, they dont really look like snow tires, more like all season. which is exactly what i have, cheap kumho ecsta ASX all season tires. so...in conclusion...brandon needs the driver mod
