Default I love new tires!!!
The first time you pull out of the parking lot with the preservative on them, just spinning and hanging the rear end out.... Love it!

Well, new bearings, u joints and tires, it drives so smooth.....

More sad than brag but I got 10,150 miles on this last set of GSD3's, bad rear bearings on the trip to Effingham didn't help but it was mostly my driving....
