As others suggested, the mold release may be a factor & few good burnouts @Carreralicious should help speed up the process. This cold weather we are having isn’t helping the grip situation either...

Stay well & drive safely!

Thanks B! I’ll def see if putting a couple hundred miles on it will improve things.
And yeah, the cold weather ain’t helping!

Update: Put a little under a hundred miles on since getting the one new rear tire, and it feels a lot better. I can actually see that white film on the outside of the tire which I read is the mold release film, so I think a couple hundred more miles and it’ll feel totally normal again. Thanks guys.
