I am a firm believer in tires. These super sports are INCREDIBLE. My car handles like its on rails, and I have stock suspension for christ sake. The thing just grips and grips and grips and doesnt let go! Wow! And they aren't even broke in yet! Did i mention the road noise is low and they give my car that solid highway feel that I use to have on the 19s? Now I see why Mercedes AMG, Porsche etc run these tires.
My favorite tire that I have driven, period. Wow.

Wish you would have SHOWED us instead of telling us.
Haha in good time, Peng. Whenever I go on these cruises though, I either chip the hell out of my front end, fry the brakes, or break something. I can't help myself and I always say i'll drive slow but never do lol.
Lmao, u actually tell yourself you are goin to drive slow... What a lie hahaha
Janik to answer your question from the meet thread, no idea why it started to smoke. My assumption is potentially the belts? Not quite sure. Had a rubberish smell but wasn't tires.
Glad to hear Bruce made it back.

yeah I saw you open the door and smoke rolled out. I thought maybe you were tokin up in there or something haha. When I saw it I looked on the ground and didnt see any coolant or other liquids, and I could smell rubber as well.
I'm glad someone else can verify that.... That would be impressive if I could pull off a toke sesh on a ride like that!

Matt - you better get this checked out. You JUST bought the car, should get all the belts and everything checked out. That's the first time I can remember us going on a cruise A CAR...let alone 2 G's going down because of mechanical issues. We miiight have had a car go into the ditch, but was still runnin' fine! lol

Thats my intake with new MAF housing... next week is cobb accessport and turbo inlet pipe... after a downpipe and a new map installed, i will be good to go with power for a while, while staying/sounding stock.
How much gains do you expect from all that? and final number to the wheels?
