XJL R-Sport Tire Spin Issue
So I very happily purchased a 2016 XJL R-Sport in August 2020. Its a VERY bad kitty!!
Anyway I replaced the rear tires in early September with Pirelli P-Zero. Even on hot pavement with hot tires, I can't punch it anywhere near 80% throttle without wheel spin. This is true even in 2nd going 25 to start with.
I love having this problem but there must be better tires. If not, I guess I have to lock down a 50 lbs. free-weight plate in the trunk
Any suggestions out there? Thanks.
