6 days and a wake up (autox related)

so all you autox'ers ready for next season?

I finally managed to get my DMS 50's back on the car with a real alignment thanks to motorsports techniques. I got my new rims, tires, and the engine is in great working order thanks to Vishnu.

I must say having the DMS 50's back on is wonderful... I hope all you JIC- whatever are up to the challenge....

Well are you punk?

Lets do a roll call and see who will be there...

I'll admit I have been doing what I proclaim to hate, bombing down back roads at ludicrous speed trying to break my new Michilen pilots loose... So far it can't be done without doing something truely stupid like pulling a hand brake or something.

These tires feel like my old kumo vicroracers I can't even get these tires to squeal!

Good news Chris!

Sounds like your all prepped and ready, did you get a set of 225 springs for the front? I supposidly have set on there way direct for you if not?

Drop me a line sometime I know I have been less than easy to get a hold of lately and have also lost 99% of my phone numbers during the shop move.

7.5 inch width, fit's like a 225 series tire. For a 235 it's a small tire.

Good luck in the new career Joe!

Well, my wayward Azenis (the ones that got shipped from Reno to here via HARRISBURG FREAKING PENNSYLVANIA due to FedEx and/or DiscountTireDirect.com having a reading impediment ) decided to show up today . Gee, only 13 days after they left Reno. I think I could have WALKED them back from Reno faster

So, get them mounted up tomorrow, and I should be all set!
