I was hoping someone here could help me out, here's the situation.
I've recently put on new wheels with with winter tires (Blizzak + T57-RC). About a week later, I did a slightly aggressive launch from a light. I noticed a quick screech (half second) as it seems the front tires were starting to slip, and then the car felt like it was kicking into gear.
Since then I've been able to reproduce the effect almost everytime. It seems more pronounced with Trac Control on than with it off, but I still can get it to slip for a sec and then feel a kick.
Is there something wrong with my car, or is this normal as the car shifts power from FWD to 4WD?
I'm hoping that this is normal and I just never noticed on my summer tires since they stick so well...
