Do you like the cornering ability? How is the loss of traction? Any audible squeel or warning? or is it all or nothing with these?

Basically wondering if they will be fun and useful and safe for slightly more than spirited driving?
The g-Force Comp-2's are ulta high performance summer tires. Again I am no expert, but I will do my best to answer your questions:

The g-force Comp-2's corner well, and are overall a very good tire in my opinion. My driving style is very spirited, and I have never had any issues or felt like I was losing traction. That said, I have not used the Comp-2's at an auto-x yet, however I previously ran the g-force KDW (they stopped making the 255 size) at a few auto-x events and never experienced any loss of traction, which is hard to do in a 986. The tires only squealed under heavy maneuvering, like the slalom. The traction is not all or nothing. I would recommend them, from my experience so far.
