Cool

been thinking about tires lately. the stock Potenza's wet traction is not that great. i may go with the Michelin pilot super sports. heard they perform better under wet conditions plus decent thread wear.

You should get them a little wider, it will probably help a little bit. You can definitely get 245's for the front and 265's for the rear. I have 245 for my front tires if you want to see how wide those are on the 18's.

I actually want to see how 245's look on the front 18's... will you be at the next MD meet? What size did you go for the rear this time around? Wonder if 275's would be ok on the 18's rear.

Meh....I stayed at work until I was told I had to leave. It felt amazing on the 12th floor of a building not designed to handle earthquakes.

Haha yeah I was in the same boat! On both parts... was told to leave at 2:15... stayed until 4. Plus, I also work on the 12th floor. Kinda crazy seeing a building sway this high up
