The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXII

That's why my wife does not drive the Z to her school, the garage ramps are too steep.

Happy Friday!

I just ordered a new set of tires for the wife's car. Continental TrueContacts. I've had mixed experiences with Continental extremecontact DWS on my old car not balancing properly but hope these will be a breath of fresh air. Can't be any worse than the OEM Bridgestone Dueler H/T on there now.

I just ahd the bright idea to sell the Z when I get rid of the Si come August and buy an Evo or STI so I can drive all year instead of garaging the poor Z for 6+ months.

^^^ That idea will be put to rest once the Z is out and I get to drive it religiously for the season.

dats really not a bad idea considering how great the current STI is. i recommend it if u only want to deal with one car.

thing is a blast to drive in stock form. just get some DWS06's in stock size (car comes with summers) and you're pretty much set.

Money wise, it's fine. It's the hassle of dealing with 2 cars and limited space. If i can get a used STI for 30k, I might start thinking about it. The fact of giving up the Z though makes me sad. I'd have only had the car for 1 year.
