I bought them off E-bay for $300.
Do you think they were wearth it?

:shock:

Have you seen the current condition of "randomtask's" car? Did you see the condition of his tires before the accident?

Darwin's theory working here.

[LowR3V'in]

Yeah, I know...
That's a scary thought.

I'm pretty stupid driving like that, what if I get stranded on the feeway or something. :x

Man my slicks look 2X times better than that, and I got them for free.
Hell, I'm not going to use mine, I'll hand them over for free.

But that's some scary wear, wtf would you spend $$$ on them?

[M-technik-3]

I hope he was kidding here cause the really don't look like R compounds.

I drove around with bald SO-3's on the M3 through the entire rainy season. When I say rainy, I mean downpour all day every day for months lol.

So long as you are careful you are fine 8)


These were them at the begining of the rainy season ;)

That is one thing that has always confounded me. Peoples logic on tires. Like my buddy who worked at a tire store would pay 50k for a car but then want the 4 for $100 weekend special tires on it. I couldnt imagine driving on tires like that, it would make me nervous.

I never understood it since tha is quite literally "where the rubber meets the road."

Jodan:
Are those mickey thompsons? :nice:

I'm actually looking for some nice CHEAP used tires.
:letitout:

[BMW BMXER]

Holy fuck man.

[Charlie]

You paid money for those tires?

Seriously, are you on crack? Those wouldn't pass an on track inspection, nor would they be legal for road usage, I'd be amazed if they even held air.

What gives?

haha i have that same wear spot on my yoko avs intermediates. I need new tires so bad.

[M-technik-3]

Please guys budget for tires!!! I don't even hesitate when my wife's car or my car need them. It's just not worth an accident. Not only that but they are cheap nowadays. You can buy a budget 16" tire for $70 dollars or so, it just doesn't make sense to skimp on your contact with the ground.

why do you need slicks anyway?
