If you've not been out of town yet, I'm assuming you've not travelled that quickly yet so how have you explored the GTA's handling?

New tyres are usually a bit unpredictable for the first few hundred miles until they scrub in.

The ride comfort around town is not the best (I'd describe it as a bit crashy) but if you feel its nervous at town speeds there is something wrong with your car and you need to get it looked at.

No need to turn the traction control off (especially around town) as it is very unobtrusive system, unless you drive like you stole it.
