Glad your coning your way into free tires from tirerack when the rest of us are paying full price for the tire...

I wasn't trying for the z2. I was going for the z1, but there is difficulty getting them it seems to replace with.

They are actually great. And if you want them i got rims that would work perfect. Actually the reason is I'm getting married May 25 and have a lot more cost coming in that I didn't know. I'm not going to really be able to run till after may/June

I might be interested in the tires Travis. That is the size I would use for the Subie. But I am also looking at the new Rival tires. They are only $150 a piece in that size. I might be ordering some RPF1's at the same time, if I can afford it.

I got them in yesterday, and they are so sticky, I had to pry the cat off of them.

They're so sticky you have to hit vtec before they'll start rolling.

I did, but then you made up some crappy excuse about marriage is expensive and you wouldn't be able to make it out to but half the events, so I jumped STX and went to a class with more cars. Don't worry, just cause we're not in the same class, doesn't mean that I'm not still gunning for you.

I just bought some of these tires for Lisa's STC impreza, but I won't get to test them at Zmax because I will be driving my SM Impreza. If she beats me, then we will know that they are really good. I will just be on street tires (re01r) for this one, I think. I want to get a better feel for this car, since I haven't autox'd or tracked it since I added KW clubsports, AP Racing front BBK, Willwood rear BBK, STi 2.5L block (up from 2.0L), 18g turbo, and gobs more torque that causes some sweet wheels spin in an AWD car!
But then again, there are Hoosiers that are just laying in the garage, decisions, decisions.

But then again, there are Hoosiers that are just laying in the garage, decisions, decisions. Did you put my old 18g turbo in your RSTI or is that another 18g turbo you had? I thought you were going to use my old turbo in your Forester. Either way, I'd love to get a ride (or even drive....hee, hee) in that car with the changes you've made. Sounds like it would be pretty exciting. As for the Hoosiers....what are you waiting for? Mount those babies up and put that little car to work! |

Post by tadpole on Feb 9, 2013 15:29:47 GMT -5
Yeah, it is your turbo Joe. I decided to put the 18g on this car. Seemed like more fun. I think I just may have to mount the Hoosiers. Just noticed an issue with the car though. I may need to get a new fuel pump really quick. Not getting enough fuel. |

Just did a test on the new ZII's in the rain. Yes. Been wanting to bolt them up and see how much better they are. Especially in the wet. Tonight would have been a good night to do it. Compared to the ZI how much better are the ZII in regards to grip and feel, especially in the wet? |

Well, poop! I am just got home from work and UPS just tried to deliver the wheels and I wasn't here. I guess I hand written note saying to leave them at the door isn't enough anymore. I guess I won't get them until tomorrow now.

For the people that ran ZIIs this past weekend, what's your impression on their wet grip?
