Especially when they are on the wear bars. LOL You don't get money back for extra rubber left on the tires.

I have a local tire store that matches their price + 1 dollar. I don't have to drive down to Midway, Ga. to get them. I just need to make sure they get the initial heat cycle service done to them that Tirerack offers.

If the R888r's will do as good as RE11's in the rain I won't complain at all. They are not going to last as long but oh well. That is what I am going to get. I have made up my mind, R888r's it is.

yea thats my fear with going with a NT01 on a 3800lb car. feel that they wont last especially being only 6/32nds tread and at 3/32nds they are full slicks with 2 cuts in them. they offer to shave them from new right to slicks.

My car may have to be downgraded from daily driver status due to wearing out tires. We shall see.

T fittings for vacuum lines came in. I tapped into the BOV line on the front of the engine. Why heat shield on only one of the hoses? I had a chunk left over, had to put it somewhere.

Probably not going to make a difference as it should equalize but I would of run the source straight into the tee and had the two feeders branch off.
