How to Destroy tires in 30 seconds

[Boba Vett]

nice job!

 

[vettn94]

cool!
Atleast it looks like you have a stack of extra tires in the garage there. Keep buying those Dunlops I just bought a few shares

 

[Mr Mojo]

Well, I finally got my new tires, I also got some skinnies for teh other car while I was at it.
I won't be smoking these as much, I have a set of Firestones for the next contest.

Mojo, out of curiosity because the deed is done in my case, but what size skinnies (both wheels and tires) were you able to get for the front?

I ran into a problem with mine because I upgraded earlier to the Baer Track system with 13" rotors, and couldn't find wheels to fit with the calipers. I settled on Weld Draglite XPs in 17x8 with 225/45 Khumos for the front; it was the skinniest front set up I could figure out.

I have Weld Pro Stars 15 x 3.5 with 165/85R15 tires. They fit no problem, I have the smaller rotors. Most of the guys with the big brakes are using the 15 x 3.5 with a spacer to clear the caliper.

Thanks.

Frank - are those original GS wheels or are they AFS or a different aftermarket wheel? Let's try to keep the rubber on for a little while longer this time - k?

 

[Mr Mojo]

Those are AFS 11" wheels with the 50mm offset.

Man, I don't know what it is, but I love new wheels, and especially, new tires. Like the Fikse ad says, "Jewelry for you car."

Those tires aren't done yet!!

Whatcha gotta do is put em back on yer car, take the car out in front of yer house, pour bleach all over the rear tires, hop in, floor it, turn the wheel all the way to the left, and burn those gams turnin 360's till the smoke is so thick ya can't see the hood. Then, you've got custome "sliks."

But of course, drive responsibly or your neighbors may get suspicious.
:crazy

 

[Mr Mojo]

There are already plenty of tire marks infront of my house and there are only three vettes in my neighborhood and two are in my driveway!

Plus I have the racing decals all over one of them. My neighbors leave me alone, they are more concerned with me having too many cars parked next to my driveway then they are with me doing burnouts.
