Default Damn this rain!

i don't know how everyone else has been doing with all this rain, but since my S2k is my daily... and i was running on my wore track tires... it has been Hell for me. i haven't been able to drive over 45 mph on the freeway without starting to slide.
Anyways.. i broke down and hit up my SPECIAL TIRE place... They quoted my 140.00 for all 4 tires installed, however i needed new valve stems so that was an extra 8 dollar charge. to my suprise when i arrived they have a nice set of Dunlop SP Sport9000s. and WOW... what a difference. LOL LOL
I guess its my own fault for not being prepared for this weather. If anyone else is in need of used tires for cheap... let me know...

Well not really. The VW is on the PIMP 13" rims with $35 a peace tire's And as for the Saleen It's on 18" BFG G Force TA's Kd's Thats a dry tire. not the best in the rain. But I can drive it and not have a prob. I worry more about the other guy in the rain. That why I don't get all the people spin out in the rain on the freeway I'll let you all in on something I learned a long time ago. when it rain's stay out of the fast and slow lane's on the freeway. thats where you will find the puddles.
