Out w/ the new, in w/ the slightly old...

Post by sirwilliam »

Well, you all know I have gotten some Rota Subzeros and that the one tire got an unfixable puncture. I sold them yesterday...puncture and all.

Then my buddy Marco dropped off 5 wheels for me. His old set of Racing Sparcos 18x7.5 (he upgraded to 18x8.5s)...couldn't pass them up for $500 for all 5. They are now my winter wheels :lol:

Just have to get my five new 235/50/18 Kumho Ecsta ASX tires for them from tirerack and get them mounted and balanced too.

Hey Julian...what is that place that you had come out to your work to mount/balance the wheels/tires?

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
