Sounds nice.. Wow..

I apologize ahead of time, but I will probably put on my winter wheels (156's) if I go. The summer wheels don't last for crap.. Hey, can you buy some new rims so I can wear your CH's to the meet?

summer tires are still doable at that time...keep the 161s on, you might need them to keep up with the rest during our rally to our second staging area.

Yes as mentioned, there will be freebies galore and awesome raffle prizes. Our sponsors have a proven track record of being generous. As expected food and drinks will not be a problem. Its gonna be a class act

, we are making sure of the fact

The summer tires wear so fast though.. I have my 156's on again, my front two bridgestone potenzas are completely done..

Don't know what I'm doing for a summer setup now.. Do I just order two front tires? Do I order some CSL reps and four new tires, sell the 161s? So much to decide..

And RFT's are so expensive!! :mad:

Your 161s can't possibly have more than 8-9k miles on them, could they?

They're a mess though. It seems like an alignment issue. The inside of the tires are completely bald. No tread left. The outside of the tires there's some tread left, but there's really bad feathering..

I do think that they might have had more miles on them when I bought them (classifieds) than I was lead to believe. But still they wore extremely fast..

I'll have to see if I can make it. If not, I'd at least like a t-shirt.

How many miles total do you think are on them? What you're describing does sound like an alignment problem.

I probably have about 9-10K on them. I bought them on classifieds and they supposedly had 1K on them at the time..

Rears are wearing normally. They're melted on the outer edges but overall the wear is a lot more normal.
