This reminds me of a friend who cuts off the heads of dandelions off in the summer.

I prefer to run them over with my mower, while in my mowing pants. :D

I've heard of shaving a tire, but the stubble on the Potenza makes it look distinguished on the Z.

I wouldn't clay, it's brand new! You won't see any difference in the paint/shine!

I fart when I get up in the morning, but I don't make threads asking if everyone else does too...

Perhaps you should enjoy driving the car more rather than sitting by the tires cutting off rubber whiskers.

I don't know why I cracked up when I read this. But yeah, it was a little on the harsh side. I'm sure spear just had a momentary bout with the "crazies" though :D

Yeah, no harm/cruelty intended. I worked twelve hours yesterday and my wife can attest that I was just in a bad mood.

No, I cannot say that I have ever done that.

I always do that with new tires or new cars. My girlfriend said I had OCD. I think it's just part of the detailing process. I'm waiting for my order from Zaino to arrive, and I can imagine the look I'll get when I try and explain why you should rub a bar of clay all over a brand new car....
