F3s tire temp

What tire temp do you guys ride during fall season say 70 degrees. Jus curious I still have the F3s and they still break at 60 mph if I punch it. I wait until the tires warm up and it still breaks. Is the tire pressure to high. 34 35 or is jus the tires. Drives A10

Those tires are no bueno unless you get ALOT of heat in them at the track. 32 psi here and I switched to Conti Sports much better ride, and to me they grip better then the Good Years. Your lucky if you get a good year out of the stock tires.

If you're saying Continental tires grip better than the stock Goodyears then you're correct, to a point.

The stock tires are unmatched by any street tire when it comes to grip, when properly warmed up as you said. Just say to say driving, other street tires will do better.

They are low tread wear tires for a reason. Super high grip with low tire life. As long as it's 70 degrees or warmer outside.

If you want a really measure of grip - change your dash display to show the tire temp. Only when it says “warm” will you get the real 3R grip. In fact on the track pushing before “warm” can be catastrophic
