Hi All,

Ms. Pint is right, I meant a proper size for front and a proper size for rear, so 2 pair = 2 new front and 2 new rear.
Now to find the time to get them mounted....I appreciate the comment though, that would be kind of risky new tires and old tires on a car that really depends on tires.

Put on another 400 miles...

Replaced my rear Michelin Pilot Super Sport "slicks" with PSS with tread. I purchased the fronts too but will put them on soon but not yet. The outer edges are smooth but these tires worked while my rears were sliding around.

I replaced my Super Sport Rears twice for every one front rplacement.

Washed, clayed, and waxed for the first time in several months

The two degrees of camber showed. The inner half of the tire was smooth and into the belts at the edge.

They worked fine until a drop of moisture appeared, and we just had 20 inches of rain and it was terrible.

First time ever in memory that I replaced my rears first. On my 300ZX I replaced fronts twice for every rear. This car has managed to fill my nostrils on a few occasions with the smell of tires. My own fault for never buying a muscle car, until now.

Got tired of trying to lift hatch and push button at the same time.

LOL, nah I figured I could use it as some of kind of self defense weapon.
