tires wanted

[ice/solo racer]

Hi guys,I'm on the lookout for used 15" tires for the rear of the corolla to burn off at drift days.
Anything in the 195-55(60)15,205-50,225-50 would be of interest,as long as there is some tread life left to last at least one event is fine.Street tires or r-tires are ok.
I prefer next to free if possible for obvious reasons:D

[Nissan Racer]

How about my Yoks from last year? 225/50/15

[ice/solo racer]

That depends on how much you want Pat,so whatdaya want for 'em?.

[Logan]

no asking price must mean free.

[ice/solo racer]

Thats what I'm hoping for!;)

I just didn't want to insult Pat,being a helleva nice guy and all(he's also a champion marksman-soooo....)

[Nissan Racer]

Well...I dunno...got anything interesting to trade :D

[ice/solo racer]

I dunno Pat,whataya need?.I have pretty much nothing to bolt on to you nissan.How bout letting you drive the corolla at a drift day?.Should be fun with supercharger installed and some torque to play with!:D
Hopefully I could spin those 225"s?,I guess with high enough pressure to balloon them up and suspension adjustment it'll drift no problems!.

If you do wanna drive the old girl you have to promise not to out do me in my own car ok?

[Nissan Racer]

hehe...deal

[Andretti]

Hey Tom ! Do you want your old Yoko's back. I have them sitting here, you can have them if you want them, I will even drop them by your house if you want. They are pretty much the same as I got them off you, but with a few burnouts. (pictured below) :) Let me know, call me or e-mail me. Talk to ya soon.

[ice/solo racer]

Hey there Chris,I forgot all about those A520's!,sure I'll take 'em back.
I'm gonna have a mountain of tires around here,lets see I have 3(soon to be 4)complete sets of r's and 2 or 3 sets of 14" street tires for drifting and solo,and that doesn't count the 18 road race slicks sitting here waiting for some wheels to wrap around!!

I'm gonna have more wheels and tires than Hannif!!!:cool:

[rpr]

Tom, Hanif is gonna lay a beatin' on you if you keep spelling his name wrong! :D

[haniforama]

Tom will end up in a Tomb :D

Only one letter off right?

[ice/solo racer]

Sorry,I don't know why I keep doing that-its stuck in my head with 2 n's for some reason.
I will try harder to spell hanif's name correctly
I will try harder to spell hanifs name correctly
I will try harder to spell hannifs name correctly-ahh damn it!:o

[haniforama]

2 out of 3 is an infinite improvement over 0 for 5 :D

[Greg F]

And after you get that one down, you can start to work on spelling Renato's name right too. Renato, you know, the guy who lent you his Corolla. Not Renalto.;)

Hahahaha.:D :D

[Nissan Racer]

Ok, Ok lets all take it easy on poor Tim, he's not so good with names
:D

[ice/solo racer]

Well Greg(spelled correct?) since I can't remember the last time I mentioned Renato's name on this forum you must live a very boring life with nothing better to do than spell check my posts?
Either that or I'm an idol of yours and you hang on word I type(or try and type?):D

Its funny how in several dozen private e-mails between renato and myself he has never mentioned my mispelling his name.:o

[ice/solo racer]

Oh and mister nissan guy(phil right?)there go's your drifting fun!,I do honestly have trouble remembering peoples names-but never a face.

[Greg F]

Haha, Renato (http://www.wiredmotorsports.com/driverprofile.asp?fid=rmcaldart%5F20030601) said he gave up a long time ago.

I have 4 well-used 205/50/15 BFG T/A R1 that I will be taking off wheels in the next month or so. They have no grooves showing (not that they were deep to start with), but probably have enough rubber left for what you are doing.
No charge, but you would have to pick them up in Pickering or east end of Scarborough.

I just found out that r-tires are not allowed under the safety rules-(crap!!).
So if anyone has used streets preferably in a 205-50-15 or 195-55-15 that would help alot thanks.

Thanks John,too bad I can't use 'em.:(

is it still considered a motorsport... when they ENCOURAGE you to have as little grip as possible??? "for safety reasons"


NICE!
They realize that braking is hurt as well... right?
Is there an Advan Neova all-season??
;) :p

[Nissan Racer]

I have 2 Bridgestone SO-3's that will be coming off my rims in the spring...

sorry.... too grippy! ;)

400+ treadwear as per the rulebook!

:p

[max attack]

Pat how much for the tires?size?.

I think the min. treadware is listed at 100-not 400!.

Miataboi-admit it,you wanna go drift!!:D

[Nissan Racer]

unfortuantly they are 205/50/16...but you can have them if you want them

I want to.... SO BAD!!!!!!!!!! IT HURTS!!!!!


But sadly... I have a bad case of wheelbase-envy...

Mine is too short... ;( (first time I've said that! ;))
Can I co-drift?

[rpr]

I have four 195/55-15 Michelin V4's (I think that's the model) that are going to be tossed. They are currently on wheels, but you are welcome to them. Two have very little tread, the other two, not much more than that.

[max attack]

Rpr that sounds good,are you going to attend the solo open house?if so would it work for you to bring the tires there?.I'm stuck up here in huntsville and a nearly 6 hour trip to pick up tires to be tossed would be a bit much.Let me know if you wait till then,thanks.

Miataboi-the wheelbase on my corolla isn't any longer than a miata!;)

I guess you'll have to revert back to your usual reason's why you won't go driftin'.:rolleyes:

[rpr]

I might be there. If not, I'll have someone in HADA haul them over for you. I'm toml on the HADA board, btw.
