If so, I would avoid the water box like the plague and bake those tires until the smoke completely engulfs the car and then see what your sixty foots look like.

I know both tires had the same air pressure, but I never thought about measuring the rollout on a radial tire. I've done it countless times on a bias-ply slick, so I may just check them to be sure.
