I'm Shopping For...
We're going to Patagonia for a week long hiking/camping thing, and exploring the rest of Chile a little bit, 2 weeks total around Xmas. The Xmas factor is going to end up costing us a lot of money but it's the only time of the year we can really take 2 full weeks off. I'm really annoyed because AMX had LAX-MEX-SCL-MEX-LAX in business class (all 787s) for $1900 R/T a while back, but one of the people wanted to do some ****ing wine tasting in Argentina so we were going to maybe fly into Buenos Aires instead of Santiago... a few weeks later we realized that Chile's wine is the same as Argentina's wine, more or less, so SCL it is. And the $1900 fares are now $3200. 
I was pushing for a side excursion to Easter Island, since the only flights there leave from SCL, but lost out. I'm going with 5 women, so I'm just going to assume I'm going to lose out on every decision.

Depends on what you are doing with the wheels/tires I guess. For me, I'm not tracking anymore so I don't need a super aggressive tire. Also, driving to North Carolina means I don't want to drive myself nuts listening to road noise, especially over paint. I loved my RE-11a's. I had a set on track wheels, a set on the Volks. I wish they didn't discontinue them. I looked at RE71r's as well but for long drives, I think they would drive me nuts. The new Continental's are what i'm 99% sure i'll be putting on the new wheels.
...once i actually open the box and get the wheels out. lol
