Default Gettin new tires put on 2morrow

...So you know what's gotta happen.






Those Sumitomos served me well so, that's what is going back on it. I just wished they left better marks on the tarmac when you're doing a pro-mod style burn out in second!

My tires were so worn, I would have to tow my **** if I did the same.

Thanks, I was looking at my wife thinking to myself "Is she was actually getting any pics of this burnout or just lookin at me through that camera?"

What could be a better way to celebrate the 4th. HP is better than fireworks.

Nice. When my first set was shot, I got 4 new ones from Tirerack and packed them in the car. I smoked 'em up all the way to the garage, stopping to do doughnuts in random parking lots. By the time I got to the shop, the tires were starting to unravel and it was riding like a wash board. Pretty soon I'll be doing the same thing again.
