Default Yup Definately time for new tires.

I just had my Goodyear TripleTreds put on and got a quick pic of one of the old tires.

Yeah not good, all tires were down to the legal limits at 65000 miles.

I like the TripleTreds I just got. I don't have alot of time on them, but even with the snow in my driveway it left a great tred pattern vs just picking up snow on my RSA's.

I have at least three here if you live close enough to come get them i will make you a hella deal on them.
they were the one on the stock wheel when i cracked the rims on two of them. one tire is perfectly fine no damage the other one is scalloped around the edges from me having to pull out of traffic on it.

but the ones on the other side are still brand new.
they are mounted on the stock wheels also. but i paid over 500.00 for them while we were in gErmany to have the car shipped i had to change the ones that were under it.
theses are the B.F. good rich traction T/A's i belive. but they have less then 10,000 miles on them

I've heard good things about BFG T/A's. Very good summer tire. Not good for me in Wisconsin, but they would be good for Dave in LA.

I'm TRYING to hold off another month to put my 18's on for Monte's at MIS on April 11th. My center tread bar has NO tread, but the wear is nice and even. I'm down to 28 psi because of high center wear issues.

I loved them even in GErmany with the snow. I was on the autobahn with them for about a week before it was shipped. they got me around great.

But this is also the third set i have owned fo them. I had them on the other monte also. and the other 78 i had.

they seem to be pretty good at keepign ya stuck in the right lane and on the ground in the rain etc..

I have the Avid TRZs on my 02 LS and they are GREAT! They stick to the pavement like glue even in wet conditions. I was ona back road in TN in pouring down rain and forgot about a sharp 90 degree turn when I was doing 55 mph. I don't know if it was just the good Lord watching out for me or if the tires are that good but I didn't even slide a bit. Also, I have NEVER hydroplaned on those tires. I reccommend them 100%, they are also REALLY affordable.
