Let me premise by saying my wife has never been the biggest fan of my high school car and all that I have been through with it. She prefers our other cars when we go out for a sunday drive or something. (I guess they're not noisy and don't stink like the stang....her words )
So as if I haven't spent enough money on this car in the last few months between the custom brakes, saleen kit and paint work. Earlier in the week when installing the brakes I saw my 10 year old flowmaster mufflers had a hole in them so I HAD to buy some magnapacks (which I'm putting on today) Wel.........I had to bite off another grand yesterday. When I went to pull the car into the garage my driveway has a decent incline so I pull in real crooked. I heard a crunch stopped and got out right away. The right rear tire was torqued way up and stuffed waaaay high into the treadwell. I had to idea it could even go up that high. So anways the tire hit the inner fender lip and it cut up the sidewall like a knife. Now the thing is the tires are brand new (400miles) and they don't make them anymore (hankook rs2's) so I can't just go get a new one. I had to order up 2 Nitto NT01's. 315 30 18.
Sorry for the rant.....
