I can check to see if the PSSs are included in that and how much they would run. Then I can compare with costco and tirerack. Do they come in the stock sport package sizes or do I need ot buy a slightly wider tire? 9like with the re-11 rears)

They are available in stock sizes. Also, you might want to check the weight differences also. If memory serves, the Michelins are 2 or 3 pounds lighter.

BLAGH! I was all set and knew what I wanted. Now I am going to have to do some more reading and price checking. You guys are making me work, haa.

:iagree: lighter and better.

I think we've truly wrecked Bruce's game plan now. :rofl2:

We'll see. With the discount, I think I can get a set of re-11s at Costco for under $1100. I'll have to see how much the PSSs will run me at some different places.

Thanks Happy :tiphat:

I took close to 80 pics, of cause some of them are same composition but different exposure, hopefully I have about 15-20 of them upload to the album then I will post the link in here. :icon17: :icon17:

Here are three more... :tup:

looking good alcheng.

So I read some reviews saying the PSSs, though very grippy, have soft side walls that cause faster wearing on the track. Yes, plan preserved! (I think...)

So Nissan says my camber and everything is within spec. Maybe I take my turns too hard, but that's what these cars are meant to do...

This may sound weird -- it is an old trick I learned early in my photographic endeavors. A starlight filter is cool and all, but it you want some unique star effects, get some pantyhose or stocking material from the Mrs. or whomever. Get a rubber band. Cut a piece of the nylon material and stretch it out across the end of your lens, securing it with the rubber band. We used to make starlight filter this way when we were broke, but they work quite well. You can play around with how tight you stretch it to get different effects.
