wider IS better...

kessler89 · 10-22-2006, 08:22 PM

so i got my new tires mounted a few days ago, just in time for the car to sit all winter

tirerack had a heck of a deal on S-03 PP's that i couldn't pass up, i was planning on going with RT-615's in 255 but the prices on the S-03's in 245/45 couldn't be beat so here they are.....

sorry for the notsohot pics, it was cold and the lighting sucked, oh yeah and so does my camera

Can you take one with both tires for eye comparison? Thanks.

kessler89 · 10-22-2006, 08:35 PM

meh the only pics i have from b4 are on my phone and i cant get them to upload so i dont have any pics of them side by side, its not like a 5in difference or anything but now i've got a tad taller sidewall for autox next year

, as good as i've heard these tires are and the fact that i got 60-70% off is the real reason i got em, still have my 070's dont know what i'm gonna do with em

haha yes yes i know, but i have a winter/work car with some killer snow tires on it and the people around here are just idiots when the snow hits the ground, i'd rather it sit to save from chips, chance of a front end colision, and the chance of me crashing trying to be a rally car driver, plus i'd need winter wheels/tires/mud flaps

idk if they'll grip better than the rt-615's, i've never heard anything bad about these tires, excelent dry/wet grip, and i got them for $95/tire, once these wear out i'll pry try some rt-615's in 255

and no, i haven't had any rubbing yet, tho i havent pushed them really hard yet, it's only 36deg. right now and tire rack said i should be easy on em for the first 500mi
