Sounds cool... So, now I'm looking for a tire and possibly a wheel... I had a flat while driving, and had to drive maybe half a mile or so(at 20mph or less) without air before I could work on the tire... when the tire was aired up, I had a severe shake at 50mph... Now, there were three big knots on the inside sidewall, so maybe the wheel is fine, and the tire ruined, but I don't know yet...

Wheel was fine... Got two used front tires(Pirelli P6 four seasons 235/45-17), and I'm rolling again... Yes there are 235s in the front and 225s in the rear, I figured the extra width would help with traction... Nope! These tires suck... Glad I only paid $40 for the pair...

I meant trim panels. And thought of one of you getting up to and staying at 50 mph w that tire shake freaks me out only slightly more than the the other of you two driving a redline on bald tires. No reputable tire place should have remounted that tire after 1/2 mi driving on the sidewalls. And those kinds of blowouts are the ones that send you in an uncontrollable direction without notice.
Please dudes, pursuing a dream loses all meaning if you're dead.
Yes, grandpa derf worries about you.

Not trying to make excuses, but I'm waiting for the ones I want to go on sale. Unless my second choice goes on sale first.
I don't drive the car more then 12 miles round trip, and haven't even put 300miles on it the year I've owned it.

just lookin out for my friends.
If a redline is anywhere near as fun as driving the last Sky redline on my dealer's lot before they shut down on a 1.5 hour "go have fun come back whenever" drive was, (and that's only turbo'ed), I just don't want you guys getting hurt---plain n simple.
Wouldn't bring it up if I didn't care.
