It took a couple of competitive exchanges, but I think we may start to be seeing eye to eye on this one. Or at least we are acknowledging each others opinion with out the words "moron" or "tard" thrown in (not sayin you said it). I have never tried to purposely belittle anyone on an opininative topic, so I don't know why people do it to me...oh well, like I said I'm over it. Can't take this stuff too seriously, it's only the internet...

Normal???? A radial tire is a radial tire, it doesn't matter what it's specific design is for. A "Z" rated tire is more performance oriented than a "T" rated tire for example. The Z will wear quickly, but provide better control and traction. A DR is just a more aggressive Z rated tire with less sidewall structure, allowing more flex, you loose some control and, but gain added traction. There is no "Normal" radial. You may mean a stock equipment radial, in other words what the car rolled off the showroom floor with.

I think what jeremy was trying to get at is if you go down to the hardline on it no mildly modified vehicle is street legal in the strict sense of the word. anything you do to modify a vehicle in a functional way except for adding a wheelchair lift is deemed legal in the beauracratic (sp) sense.

Oh lord, cant joke around with anyone nowadays.

Anyhow, anyone who actually knows me knows I really could care less about cars nowadays, I happen to like alot of imports, and I call most of my "import" friends ricers, jokingly, and my 14second beast is staying that.

Hopefully I'll sell it soon for a nice economy car.

I STRIVE to be the "typical" v8 guy, because its all a joke, and I really don't give a shit about the performance of cars anymore.
