I finally decided I couldn't wait any longer for tires.

After being told that Continental would not be shipping tires until mid-July, I broke down and called a local-ish chain. They had them for like $40 more a tire, but due to the weather and not liking  the feeling of escaping death, I paid up. The car is SOOOOO MUCHHHHH quieter now, I can actually hear the exhaust when cruising now. I also didn’t start fish tailing at 46 in the rain on the way home, so that’s a bonus.

Shout out to the utility company for rutting the side of my driveway I use to not scrape.

 A million boomers just cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Honestly, as I was discussing with Daender last night, they genuinely don’t care what you do to it. As long as you aren’t doing it to theirs, they are impartial.

Pretty much. The C5 pages I’m on are  much less hostile than the GTI and ST pages I’m on. Yeah, there are some cringy things on there, but I've seen worse.

“ I also didn’t start fish tailing at 46 in the rain on the way home”

So you’re saying they’re a big fun downgrade?

What’d you get again?

No, fish tailing as in, the car started twerking without throttle prompting. The back hydroplaned while the front stayed planted.

Continental ExtremeContact Sports. First impression of all four on the car, is that they are so much quieter than the Pilot Sports that were on it, but those were....8 years old. I have no other thoughts since rain + 405hp = spirited driving bad.

That’s what I rock on my wrx. They’re ultra sticky in the wet if you get them up in temp. Hell , they’re sticky all around.

I’ve had the fronts for a month or so, and cloverleaf   interstate entrance ramps have been fun...

Yeah SC weather has not been kind this week. I came down here for the week to visit my girlfriend expecting to go to the beach and pool frequently but we’ve only gotten 1 nice day so far, hopefully today is good though

It’s supposed to be clear for the rest of the week. It’s nice in Beaufort today.

Hopefully it’ll stay this way for when I go to Charleston tonight
