I got new tires when I got my car, so since I wasn't familiar with the car, I was pretty conservative but for you dudes who are familiar with your car, can't you just do some burnouts and hard turns losing traction to scrub that off in a matter of a few minutes? ...kinda like with leather sole shoes? BTW, I lost the back end of mine a week after getting new tires getting onto the freeway and PSM reeled me back in but by the time I drove from LA to the bay area and back, they were grippy. I did a little road trip to FD Motorsports to get some Fisters that broke in my new tires nicely (except for the aforementioned on ramp).
Question for these super low cars. How do you guys avoid rubbing the front spoiler? Even at stock height I have dificulty not rubbing on some driveway approaches. Some of these cars apear to have about an inch or two of clearance.

I have a Cargraphic AirLift noselift kit on mine with the Bilstein B16 Damptronics.
Black airbag at the top is what raises the nose when the compressor is activated. Black box on the far left is the control box. Remote mount compressor is next to the Optima battery. Changing to the smaller Optima was done to make space for the compressor mount. All the OEM trim panels fit and the frunk looks stock.
Here's a YouTube endorsement video with Walter Rohrl.
Installed a sharkwerks crossover pipe/center muffler delete. It was a busy weekend, I posted yesterday after having installed the GT3 smiles grill, DSC PASM controller, titanium lug nuts, touched up the calipers and today was the muffler. Lots more stuff planned but so far so good. The crossover pipe coupled with the PSE sounds ridiculous. Love it. Hands down the best mod I've done so far.
How do you like the Max Jax? That's the one at the top of my list. My area has just enough overhead clearance to get the car to about the max lift height for that lift. Just about perfect for my situation.
Perhaps the best tool I own now. Has easily paid for itself in just the cost of a plug change in my car.
I have 10' ceiling and replaced the garage opener with a liftmaster shaft drive unit.
I was lucky there one town over local pickup made it an even better deal.
I have since done 12 year service on my car and my friend David's car, installed 2 aftermarket exhaust systems.
Intercoolers are next.
Best of all the takes little space when stored the pump is wall mounted,with a 10' extension on one hose.
About 15 minutes to set up but no more crawling on the ground.
Assembled my Rennline engine mounts and installed the Rennline pedals etc.
Ordered the track mat and fully adjustable throttle pedal but now that I have this kit installed I'm not sure I'll need the fully adjustable pedal. This one feels just fine for h/t.......actually more T/T roll as I prefer.
Trackmat will look good and be useful for actual track stuff but be tinny and scratchy for street use I predict. I just love the quality of Rennline stuff and pretty much have everything they offer for my model.

oh ya...and Rennline ****.....forgot about that even though it was one PITA to get the stock one off.
Hope I like this one because the OEM is destroyed now. Feels good though and matches my centre console nicely.
Installed new steering wheel. What supposed to be a 20min job turned into an hour because the airbag was stuck and was having trouble getting it out. It eventually came out after pressing it inwards a couple of times while trying to pop it. Looks and feels great after a test drive. Will need to readjust the wheel because it's a bit off.
Where did you get that steering wheel? Very nice and simple.
