Default Hoosier c06 radial slicks
So I've been running a Hoosier c07 radial slick with no problems. Now I'm running the same tire except its a c06 compound and I just blow the tires off. Same tire pressure at 20psi. What do I do?

The co7's won't work on the same chassis tune.. the co6 was softer.. put more bite in the car. You're gonna have to retune the chassis to those new co7's..
Had a buddy go through that recently.

So now I know the plastic knob is for rebound and the metal knob is for compression. Time to readjust and try again.
