Three things... Those tires got a lot of slick'em on them... I'll suppose you did that after you got home... Those wheels and tires look SIC... and that's good. and new tires are quite slippery... Take it easy for the first 50 miles or so... or find a dark lonely quiet strip of asphalt and smoke the hell out of em... then... you'll be in the premium area of the tread....and have many many happy miles of decent traction... Them ponies you sporting gonna spin the skins...

2 things... 1. give them a hundred miles or so to get the outer layer of rubber off. 2. DO NOT put tireshine on the treads. it'll be like trying to get traction on wet grass with a bucket of ky jelly poured on it.

Ok. I might have gotten a little tire shine on the tread.
I figured I'd need to get the top layer of new rubber off. I think I did that this morning. Traffic heavy this am so didn't get a chance to really test it. Just smoked em' in WinDixie parking lot. Here's a couple pics from the morning. Kinda busy today. Got a consultation this morning and leaving early to get my car aligned and then take Bonnies car home to change the diff fluid. |

Thanks for the business Randy! Wheels look great.
Corvette factory wheels look like crap though. (Hi Bonnie!)
