Mine does it with the Vredesteins I have on at the moment. I have found that the esp seams to kick in more with these than the conti's.

it's a case of learning to be progressive and feed the power in gently with the loud pedal instead of giving it the lead foot treatment.
Took me a while to master it but works well..

Lit mine up in 4th in the wet on Monday night coming off a roundabout, had even short-shifted through the lower gears.
It's that great dollop of torque combined with slippy roads. Don't know if decent 'wets' would help but not exactly practical for on the roads.
My grip returned when it spat off an intercooler hose

I found that with over 300BHP short shifting in the first 4 gears is the best way of holding on to traction .
I have 19'' rims with Vredesteins on and they are no better of worse than the standard Conti's or Falkens that i had on the standard 18'' rims
sorry but what do you mean short shifting

Short shifting is just changing gear before reaching max power or revs.
