What A difference-New Tires!
I bought my 8 a few months ago. (04 Titanium Grey MT6) I've enjoyed the car, but have to say that I didn't quite understand all the hype about handling. The car had Pirelli winter tires on it when I bought it. Since I live in Indiana, I left them on as winter was aproaching. They were getting beyond the point of needing replacement, so I had a set of Yokohama all season tires put on the other day. Now I get it! It's like a new car. Handles as well or better than anything I've driven. I'll never again drive on tires longer than I should!

Power!!
+1. Also it's age as much as tread. Tires will harden and heat cycle out over time. Even if you have tread left the age of the rubber will also reduce performance.

The next set of tires for the car will be the Bridgestone RE 11's
