Found this old pic of my first e30, '88 ix. I miss that dirty slut, so badly.

I remember in high school, the kids would make fun of my bimmer, they called it the Tijuana bimmer LOL.

They also used to say I looked like my car. I though I was a bad ass and had a mustache my junior year, and they compared it to the diving boards haha! I was in the year book with a side by side of my face and the front of my IX LOL. I'm trying to find that..

Just got my new tires installed thank God. The rear tires were bald from negative camber and were 5 years old anyways.

Ahhh, isn't it such a refreshing feeling?

I was running 14 year old Michelins on my Euroweaves up until last April when I finally got some fresh S-Drives installed in Chicago before my 6,000 mile road trip.

On this subject, I've discovered tires have a lifespan of about 6-7 years before they start to deteriorate. That number is probably less with cheaper tires. I researched after I noticed my 6 year old falken's starting to crack although they spent 4 years on the road and the last 2 years in storage. I then put those rims back on the car so I could use them up.
