✔ At a competition? Hit the burnout box a little longer.

✔ At a grassroots event? Take an extra lap or do a quick burnout before your first official run to wear off the slick top layer and expose max grip.

✔ Don’t stretch your tires too much—265 or 285 on a 9.5” wheel is ideal.

✔ Get heat in the tires—this rubber loves a proper warm-up.

✔ Air down slightly to increase the contact patch and maximize grip for smoother, more controlled slides.

✔ Set your pressures—start with 32 psi hot and adjust based on feel.

✔ Check your tires every few laps to see how they’re reacting to pressure and alignment.

✔ Warm up your tires—your first few laps should be easy warm-up laps to get heat into the rubber, maximizing performance for when you push.

✔ Don’t overdo it—after several hot laps, your tires might feel greasy; this means they’re overheating.

✔ Rotate your tires every few sessions for even wear.

✔ Check pressures regularly—for the street, 32–35 psi keeps things balanced. Expect more road feel—these are ultra-high-performance tires, so enjoy the grip.

✔ Drive spirited, but smart—the 651 Sport sticks hard but rewards smooth inputs.

✔ Get heat in the tires—this rubber loves a proper warm-up.
