I have these on my white rims as of now. They have uneven shoulders with the inside being the worst. I bought them used like that. My point is to test how good these cheap tires are. Anyone wanna try? Maybe you fuji? The tread in the center is pretty good. I just want to conduct an experiment on them before I take them off and put some new tires on after I get the rims repainted/powercoated. BTW, they are not going to be tested on my ride. Tires size is 215-45-17. Anyone interested? Yia YIA!
You have a 17" wheel with that? I can test it on a clover ramp. I did do a little testing on the 36/35E clover ramp with Lee's wheels & tires on my car just earlier tonight. Held at an average 50mph on the clover leaf as of current modifications (poor boys swaybar; worked great, very neutral).
What you mean is that you want to take them off, slap them onto a car (in this case: mine ), and both of us take my car out for a spin? :???: Or did you mean, you want us to help you test them out in your car for one last time before you give them up? :???::???::???:
I am planning on getting new tires for the rims. The tires are still in good shape. They are the cheap kind and I want to find out how cheap they are. We are better off conducting them on your guy's rides, mine has a suspension issue. After the experiment, whoever wants the tires can have them with the exception of hooking me up with favors later . Favors I'm looking for are spring installation help (I need the guide from Fong), and other stuff that I know you guys know. So whos in it? Both you guys wanna try? Lets set up a meet. Yia Yia
hehe. sure. If the weather permits, I'll bring them over to who evers place that wanna try then we can go do a lil experimenting
"O".................depends on you guys who are the drivers. I am there just to take notes. if "o" is the way to go then lets do it!
I don't know how well the local authorites will take the squeeling when the tires are being tested on local roads. How about south on Snelling ave where it meets 7th St.?
hmm. I dont know stp very well but if you know the place then sure. I know you are up in CR, Im in BC, I can probably drop by fri night and we can put them on and then go to stp for the action. what do you say?

I'll give the guy a ride at "O"... once I'm done... I'm sure his diaper would be too wet to call back up... or is it the other way around that my diaper would be too wet when I'm surrounded LOL. John, your tag is too slow... I move pass it and now Fong's been tag. DoH! Sheesh guys... stop hijacking Homie Yia's thread
They are mounted and ready for some action! it seems as though they may not be tested this week. They say its going to rain fri & sat night . Maybe next week
Yang, if those "tite" wheels don't fit over the Subaru 4-Pots, then I can't test them out. What's their offset? Did the previous owner have super negative camber set for their ride?
yeap, the previous owner had some mess up cambers, off set is 48mm i think. 4 pot?? are those stock GC or wrx? I am not quite sure. Let me see if they'll fit on mines.
IIRC, Subaru 4-pots are big brakes designed for the Sti's in Japan. They use WRX rotors, but they don't fit too many wheels out there (the MY02+ OEM wheels for example). }
Hey fuji, going tonight? Should I bring two of them or you want all 4? If you don't reply, I might just bring two Ahhhhhh YIA!
I am not sure. call me @ 763-670-7756 for those intersted, I am not checking this forum tonight, I will bring all 4 tires. Yia
Hey Fuji, My wheels balanced yet?? They better not be stolen }. Leave it with you for 3 days now and my heart is in pain . I will call you when I'm ready to pick them up. For doing me that favor, I'll bring my coilovers and show them to you. I'll give you a discount of $20 . I bought them $75 originaly so be happy . Yia YIA
The thing is, we found a nail on one tire. Was it there before we put it onto my car? I have no clue. SO I was not going to balance them. I'll have to look at the nail first. Do you still want me to go forth on balancing it? If this nail is not so bad then I'll balance unless you say otherwise. OR You can save up for some new tires then we can get them balance with the new tires on. Because later in a month or so I won't get access to a tire changers anymore.
Hey fuji, I dont know if that nail was there before. Yea, see how serious it is, if not serious do the balanced thing and if serious then you decide to do it or not. I wont be getting any tires soon b/c im low on $$. We'll talk on fri night
