I have 9,500 on my org. GoodYears and had a alignment with only 300 miles on the car. An alignment to straighten everything out because of the track set up from the factory. By the looks of the tires I might get another 2000 miles out of them, then it's time for new shoes. Sad part is I haven't spun a tire on the car yet so don't know why they wore so fast.

What can I say...

If this doesn't beat all. WOW!!! A thread named after me!

Thank you all, and especially to Torchsport for starting it.
Damn nice of you Brad!

CSF, I loved that video, never seen it before!

This is a great group, even the skinny *** guys like Randy add quality here.

Tomorrow morning they start paving the final layer of asphalt on the roads in my new community.
I don't need to be dragging fresh tar on my paver brick driveway, so I'll be staying indoors for the next 4 or 5 days until they finish, and it's dry.

Consider yourselves warned, I'll be around here more than usual.

Then it'll be alignment time!
Are you staying with the OEM alignment, or going with the PFADT "Street Performance", specs?

I'll be replacing my runcraps in the fall, and going with these...

I know, it's a little over the top, I even feel a little badly asking him.

I think you'll like the Potenzas...
Of course, a <$2 tread depth gauge can help catch it. And that might prevent $900-$2200 prematurely for new tires.
