haha it's actually the rear that are s03s. and nope not yet.. dude i'm not rich! i gotta at least use these tires bald until i get new ones.. probably another month or so. hey asura question, so my tires look a little "burnt" on the outside and it seems that the tread of my tires are wearing out faster on the outside than the inside, i think it's due to the fact that my tire pressure isn't high enough.. but they are 32psi all around and plus when i go up into the mountains it should increase even more due to less pressure as you go up... or is 32psi not enough? i figured it was cause it's factory recommended plus the increase as i go up into the mountains bumps it up a little.

and friday sounds like a can do, wut time?

wut time did you wanna go on saturday/sunday? sunday there's a lot of bikers... they love to pass but go slow as hell in the curves so that kinda sucks, and sunday is filled with a lotta nature people too. so saturday would be a better bet, but time?

drangonboi,

is that 32 psi hot or cold? It should be cold pressure, ie before you start the car. The pressure could be different on S-03's, I have never used them. That burnt look means you are cornering nicely Talk to your 'rentz about safety, you'll get new tires.

hi, i'm new and would like to join you guys for a drive - preferably during the day but anytime is ok.

i must correct you about the biker comment as you must mean harley riders. i don't know how fast you guys drive on 35 but if i pass a car on my motorcycle it is not going to catch up.

Depends on who's driving what car. This is definately not the time of year to be passing on a bike or in a car.

I think I saw in the Mercury news (Mr. Road-Show) that the CHP is cracking down on aggressive driving on 35. So please be careful out there, don't want anyone to come back with a ticket.
