My Poor Tires! * with pics *
 
The BF Goody's I got in November are destroyed up front. I came out of the house to find my friend and his dad looking at my tires laughing. I was like whats going on? They where like, " do you have any idea what you did to you're tires?" I looked and :eek!: Chunks of rubber where all over my wheel well and splashed up on my car like road spay. The tread, well over half gone. At that track I erased a good 10,000 miles of tread wear!! There goes another $500 down the shi**er.

Another one bits the dust do do do.

We'll just let the smiley do the talking. The ranting and raving smiley.

I wouldn't be buying those again. But look again, and make sure it's actually YOUR rubber. Most cars that go to a prepped track get sticky VHT and other people's rubber on their car. All of us at Woodburn did last year.

Allmachtige's 98 looked like it had rhinolining on the rocker panels because he spun it so much on the passenger side.

BFG's are great tires normally, they lasted a LONG time on our GMC (even after plenty of real offroading) from the abuse.

Or change ur driving habits. :wink: And ROTATE your tires.

Much better than the Michelins

find somewhere to buy the piece to take the locking lug off.

Take them to a tire shop. They'll remove them with a special tool in an impact wrench, or dig in your trunk for the key. I have mine, but don't use it. I removed the locking lugs.

Be careful rotating tires, especially if you have directional tread ;)
