Nothing wrong with being on a budget, but that made me laugh. No offense meant purplecty, just made me chuckle that a tire manufacturer would put that on a tire.

I agree and was torn between the Cosmo MuchoMacho and Achilles desert hawks. The desert hawks sounds better but I preferred the thread pattern of the Cosmo. The best part is they were like $220 for 2 315 35 20 at the time of purchase and have performed excellent. A lot of good x5 reviews on them lead me to these as well...

Started Red up after she's been outside under her car cover for 3 weeks so I could move her further under the car port (incoming storm so wanted to get the F15 under as much as possible too). She fired right up. So nice to no longer have a battery drain on the electrical system. Soooooo nice.

They're pretty sweet I have red-eyed chrome skulls from ACE for valve caps anyway

I'm glad you're happy with them - I was persuaded to use Altenzo rears once and my wallet told me "yes", but they were horrible. Soon went back to Michelins. I need to read up more!!

Quite the contrary. I wear the emotional scars as a badge of honor. Like getting towel snapped in the locker room after a game.

But seriously... Good catch on that brake line. Your flinstone stomps could put that out of commission in a hurry.

Wow. Looks like braided stainless lines from ECS would be worth it.
