Re: back in action II
Congratulations, dude!
I'm interested in your feedback on the tires... I've always regarded those as one of the ultimate street tires, for some reason, and wonder if that opinion is justified. It is based on nothing whatsoever, and I don't know where I got that idea. I think it's cool that they're available in such an incredibly large range of sizes, but what do you think of them? I've always thought of them as a tire that offered incredible grip in the dry, and really bad wear characteristics, for a street tire. True/false? (Obviously you wouldn't know about wear yet, since they're brand new... at least I HOPE you wouldn't... hehe...)

I did not replace the upper stress bar yet (lost temp. in my apartment packing frenzy) and that might have some effect to what I felt. The car was so different. It has been almost two months since I have driven it and the truck is quite a different drive. It felt great, mind you , but when I made quick and small jerks to the wheel at speed the back end felt like it was a split second behind. Sorta like I was crabin' for a second. Maybe the alignemt is not correct. My numbers are in the glove box. Maybe I am just not used to it for a lot was changed at oe time.
