The tires seem to work just fine _ I'm no autocrosser, but yesterday afternoon and this morning I have been pushing them pretty hard (again, by my own standards) and they're not telling me to slow down at all. They're H-rated, and they're certainly not whitewalls as far as aesthetics go, so I'm going to give them a chance.

Like I said, I would have preferred they just replaced the Dunlops I had on there (and enjoyed, when they were not bald), and I think they could have gone a bit sportier within that price range ($85-$95), but heck, with the suspension repairs and new brakes, I feel like it's 1998 and I just drove off the lot.

I was previously planning on the Stazi brakes, but to be completely honest, I simply didn't have the will to do it, especially considering the rotors have been on there for 92,000 miles (!). I'll admit defeat on that one.

BTW, I now have a crapload of part numbers for all the work I got done, so let me know if there's anything you guys need to reference. Till then, I'll be out driving my born again SVT!
