    ah. thought they were new because i haven't seen shit in my size (other than stuff with 100 treadwear or lower) for a while now.

    i think i'm getting the dunlops too; my KDWs had 300 TW and that was plenty of grip.

      Who can do a wheel stud on a 02 Civic?

      Also I may be letting the M5 go.

        If you strip off all the brake hardware, you can rotate the hub till the stud in question lines up with an opening behind it and the just hammer it out. To reinstall new one, just slip in from rear, use an open ended lug nut nut, and torque it till it pulls the new stud flush on the back. Done.

          The starspec tires are way better than KDW line of tires. I enjoy mine in 215/40/17. Sticky enough to handle s52.

              How many miles do you expect to get out of them, based on the wear you've seen so far?

                  5k. Thats with flipping tires. But I run Alotta camber, and tend to spin em easily bc of contact patch. I have seen my buddies get 10-15k on the same tires, but usually closer to 10k.

                    I don't think you can do that on this gen. Hub needs to be pulled according to what I'm reading on honda-tech

                    It needs some work and I think it's time for me to move onto something different.

                              The M3 was sold a while ago

                              I have a full suspension I sourced for the iS (minus rear caliper carriers :curse:)
