Good news!!!

My new tires are on! And I LOVE EM!! Pictures will follow soon!! Definate improvement in road handling! Should have replaced em much earlier!

Bad news!!!

Also found out what is causing my drive line troubles. Its not the clutch, its not the driveshaft bearing, my diff is dying.. TE71Corolla looked over my car while we're changing the tires and we found alot of play on the rear axle and some other business going on that left little other conclusion then that this things is on its last legs.....

Told you you would like the RE720s ;-) Now the jump from these to SO2s or SO3s is about the same..great tires.

Yeah really love em. Interesting how different they already feel. Sure I expect alot of difference between warn out Yoko's and new tires, I already noticed an improvement with banpei's tires which were new falkens in the rear and some other tires in front with plenty of track. But these things just STICK.

Can't wait to find out how they behave on the track. Might go for a spin at Zandvoort on the 4th of November but I'm not sure yet cause of my diff problems, depends a bit on if I can find a temp replacement or if I want to take the gamble Big Grin

Also got my new bling bling lugnuts in. Dont realy care about the bling factor but these have some funky pattern so its a little more difficult to unscrew em. Just hope I can find my "other" sized wrench set Wink

Yep, I totally agree with that. Wink
Probably because his car is much darker than mine. Smile

Now your car looks great (even when you re inside Evil Evil )

Just kidding of course.

In the begging I didnt like them, but you were right, they look great in daylight.

p.s Judging from the night pics, assuming rain drops work like "metal" a new "sparcling" blue color would be nice Smile

AE86s seem to be like mini's...they follow a 5 year restauration cycle.
