I got the estimate for 4 of the federal SS595 245/50R16's shipped to lawrenceville and its about $400. Dont know any shops around here that have them, and if they did they probably wouldnt be around $100 a piece.

I DOn't have federals, but I just bought some General UHP's.. I don't care to much about tire life becuase I find my self getting new ones every 6 months anyway. But they are better than my 711's... And my g-force sports. And they were only 89 a tire from discount.

I just got the quote for the heaviest tire, that way it would be less or the same for other sizes.

personally Im going to run the 16" sportmax 002 in the widest size they have, i think its 8", and I want a decent sized sidewall, none of that rubber band crap.

hefty sidewalls on oldschool lookin wheels ftw.. and cash, thanks, i couldnt think of the name of it.. but that road/area is awesome.. soo much rice to look at up there..

i may be getting these for the shell i told you we were putting the RB25 into griffin. its black just like this hatch, i just like the stealthy look. :p

sweet, do you drive to school?

Cameron.

no, i will next year, if i can get a class at maxwell or something, im only a soph. haha, but if "you" drive to school, id suggest parking as far away from the football stadium as possible, cause last week, i was going out to the football field for team sports, these black kids were chucking rocks out in the parking lot, and i heard 1 or 2 windshields go ka-chink... ahhhh......


...but there gloss

Edit: my bad, just re-read the thread, and there matte black.

im bored..

werd... also those wheels and tires are coming off of that exact car, im not getting them new, if you thought i was..

those are fresh ta def.

I park in the gravel parking lot, the people up there aren't fucking retarted like those kids you were talking about. Nobody spins the tires in the gravel, which was one of my biggest fears when parking up there. I wish I had my project car when I was a sophomore. I just got mine and want to finish it before i graduate.

well see i got reallllllllllllllllllllllly lucky over the summer.. i worked over at holiday marina, helping this guy who runs Sea-Tow, and he got a sailboat for 650 dollars at an auction... he was gunna turn it into a shit hauler for his shit hauling business.. well that idea fell through, and he was tired of seeing it, and so one day he just lost his mind, and said to me, "sell it for me, im tired of seeing it.. whatever you get for it you can keep it..." soooo... i got on craigslist when i got home put it on there for 6 grand ( it had the potential to sell for that much), and next day went to the boat cleaned it up to looking good condition, and ended up selling it a couple weeks later... he was ticked as hell when he found out what i sold it for, but he was a true to his word man, and just said "next time you do work for me, your not geting paid..... :P." and i felt sorta bad so i gave him 650 dollars out of it, and with all that cash income, i had money to spend, and im not gunna lie, my parents helped out on my red car, but, i got realll lucky with that boat.. haha:D
