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

kenchan · 03-11-2017, 11:52 AM

one of da top dogs at my work asked if i want to get in on a civic type-r group buy.. like dey order 5 at a time and get a supplier discount or something.

only problem with high power FWD..i cant put all dat power to da ground off da line.. like my GTI currently pulls over 300lbs/ft and it just spins..

anything over 300lbs/ft requires AWD or RWD for street unless its like a truck or something just for hauling.. lol

So you would only rotate crappy all season tires? Not the high-performance Michelin all season tires?

Mrs. BoneZ brought home another gift for me.

Love that gall.

yah, i dont run pss, but if i did, i would not rotate dem.

crap tires are about longitivity.
performance tires are about performance. i dont rotate them including my RE11's.

datz weird... usually on US roads its the left tires dat wear first as dere are more right turns vs left (since we drive on the right side of da road).

u get ur alignment checked lately? might want to do dat.

St.Patricks pub crawl hurr today. Not going this year. Getting too old for that.

BoneZ · 03-11-2017, 12:19 PM

Yep. I get the 3 year alignment warranty and have it done frequently. I also have an open differential. The right tire wears faster but it's still wears evenly.

kenchan · 03-11-2017, 12:20 PM

oh yah, when i took off my GTI's wheels i was running for like 8months i noticed it only had like half tread left

and dese are like 400AA or something tires (DWS06). id get da same set next time too. cheap and great for all season perf.
