Let us know how they do in the snow. I like the conti handles.

Yes those are nice... your point is?

Are those the kumho ecsta's? I had those before 255-50-16 all the way around. They didnt seam to last very long, maybe 15-20K miles.

Very nice. What kind of exhaust is that? I like the tip design, hadnt thought of going single tip on mine but that tip looks pretty good.

Tires look real good, but I think they would look alot better if you sensor lower the suspension.

Look familiar...I have the same ones on mine. As far as the longevity of them, i've had these tires on 2 cars so far, this one and my old 5 speed mark VII and have daily driven them the last 2-3 years with lots of burnouts and quite a few trips to the track. Probably have 30,000 + miles on them with plenty of tread left...thats just been my experience with them.

oh and they are sticky in the summer, pretty crappy in the rain (thank god for traction control and light foot) and in the snow? Forget about it. Drive something else...

 

[Markviiiedrea]

looks good, all though you need bumper cut-outs for that beautyful exhaust. It will get em tucked up nicely!

 

[slickemhoundd]

i must say first hand, his exhaust does sound good
