Watch that curb... The Goodyear F1s that came on my SS (275/40Z17)
have a pretty wimpy sidewall construction.
Scuffed a curb at lunchtime, found it flat
later with a 1" tear in the sidewall. These
tires are real soft and thin when you don't
have air in 'em <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
And $280 a pop, plus labor. At 1 tire every
1000 miles, this is going to get expensive <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
