I had a similar experience, and eventually had to put on new rubber. At the recommendation of my indy tech I replaced the Eagle GTs with Michelin Pilots -- man, what a difference! It's hardly the same car. Far smoother, responsive, and softer. The GTs look cool, but I think this car was tuned to the pricier Michelins.

Recommended tire pressure is 36psi (250 kga)
