P,

Do ya feel lucky?  Well do ya, punk?

Be grateful, your wheels were probably saved by your 255 balloons.  Now suck
it up - that tire's toast.  Time to buy a new set of shoes.  And what a
great opportunity to ditch those Contis!

I just sprung for a set of 245 40 17 Toyo TS-1's - very black, very round,
very sticky, very light.  I can't tell yet whether they're better than the
Yoko S0-2s that came off, but so far it looks promising.  My Fikse FM-10's
just came back from polishing at Wheel Enhancement in CA, and they look
scary good.  If you want a pic just ask; these wheels can't look this good
for long - I'd love to show them off before time takes its toll.

I do have 4 used 235 45 17 S0-2 PPs.  2 of them are edge worn-out, 2 are
pretty darn good.  Anyone interested?  In CT.

Punk?  BEOCH!

Lucky?  Well, turns out the Conti's are not that bad, at only $165 per.
Maybe I'll get me a pair and call it a day.  Ditch them?  Why would I wanna
do that?  I've been quite happy with them honestly.  Not the best, but not
at all bad, I figured they'd be WAY more $, like Pilot Sport territory.
Stiffer than your T1Ss, mind you, and no W rating here, need that Y rating
for all my 186 attempts.  Oh, wait, that was in the Porsche...

Sexy Fikse's in CT, eh Paulie Paul?  Well, what better place to show them
off but 8/23 in Tolland.  You won't show.  Pansy.

Oh, isn't your last line a FS ad? ;-)  Long as you don't use A/S we're all
set...
