People borrow money from their parents and/or friends all the time for things, and if they are happy to do it and/or offer, that's their perogative. I guess my point was that it doesn't really matter, and buying them with a credit card is no different.

Yeah, but what's the saying with business and family? If anything goes sour you may have drama or dislike within your family or friends. I'd just rather have a interest penalty if I don't pay back on time than hurting family ties, which is more important than money to me. But that's my personal preference, and I was just curious on why you rolled differently from me. Look into a card if you can, I got one at 19 with just a $2000 cap, and sometime you may not have a friend that has spare cash or willing to part with it right at that moment.

But I'm sorry I asked given the response. take care. I guess it's your personal business even if you are posting it on a forum? i apologize, next time I won't reply to you. anyway, enjoy those tires.

Don't take it that way, I was just taken back by your initial response. You are right, and I apologize for jumping to conclusions about it.

What tires do you use for autocross??

What tires do you use for autocross??

I like Tijuana Retreads, I think the brand name is "Cooper"

[AdironRider]

I actually really like my Cooper Discoverer AT's on my Pathfinder, but I dont know about their non truck stuff.

I'm not sure what I'll be using for auto-x tires. Nothing too extravagant, as I'm a beginner. But I have a seperate set of weaves I'll be using for auto-x wheels.

We used S03's on the formula 2000 car's I drove back in 04. Awesome tires, all kinds of grip. Nice score man!

Just got 6 of those puppies, 2 fronts 245/35-19 and 4 rears 275/30-19.

The rears seem to wear out much faster than the fronts.... :oops:

Cant wait for summer

Josh, for autox I would highly recommend Azenis RT-615 to learn on (as opposed to slicks). Very easy on the wallet, will last at least 2 seasons, and awesome grip.

I've been through a shitfuck load of "performance" tires, anything tire rack ranks from "ultra high performance" to "max performance", and none of them compare to the Azenis. Azenis are cheap too. I mounted them on bottlecaps and they have outdone any other street tire I've used. And that is in a 195/60/14 size, as opposed to my 205/45/16 street tire size). The sidewalls are stiffer, even in that size, then any of the 16" tires. But, I would only recommend them for track use. The normal lifespan is ~8000 miles of street use.

In the rain . . .

these tires are the shiznit. My old man runs them on his 97 993 and it is a rain driving machine. Gotta have em here in the Seattle area.

[87-325ic]
