both of those are great tires. but serious hi perf and short tread life.
I have been running General Exclaim UHP for over a year now with great results. As a daily driver they are fantastic. Results and comparisons can be found at www.tirerack.com

Hope everyone has a happy Turkey day. Tire rack has the find the best tire for me tool. I wanted a longer life and more of an all season tire for the 04 HB/W MC as Kat will be driving it in the north west so we went with the recommendation of the Tire Rack and installed Continental ContiProContact.

I've ran BFG KDW2's twice & I might do them again when I hopefully swap back my SSR's to the new Frackmobile. I'm thinking of trying either: Goodyear Eagle F1's, Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position's or Pirelli P-Zero's though for a daily-driven ultra-high performance all-season tire.

The Pirelli P-Zero Nero MX (all season) were nice as well. They had great life too and were relatively cheep.

Don, I saw you cruising down Friant this morning at 11:30am'ish. The Clubman looks good. In fact, guess what I just found on the EuroSunday-Fresno site- our buddy Don with his ryde. Yes, I said "ryde" it sounds cool. Home-town, you need a MidCal sticker on your car.

C'mon mang, the Ferrambo is "off the chain" it's so ridiculously cool. We could each get one to pay homage to the prancing horse - Rambler style.

It's kinda like the mountain - it's there, so you've gotta climb it. At least they chose a valuable car like a Rambler & not a Yugo.

Hey All,
Wanted to say thanks for all the tire suggestion. I knew I was going to have to replace the tires due to problems with the back two tires (alignment), but was not plannignto do untill after the Holidays. But now I really have to replace them. I got a flat this morning and ruined the tire . So I am very happy that I got all the suggestions now. Anyway Thanks again!

Tina

Having owned an '84 Fiero AM4 in the same color, it had to be the biggest POS that I ever had the mis-pleasure to drive. Under powered, wallowed down the road and kept breaking shifter cables. + a shoebox for a boot.

But a lot cheaper (in every way) than a Ferrari.
