Those look like some well mannered tyres! The problem in the tire world is as they gain popularity the price goes up. When they were first introduced the cost was $132.00 a tire, I got mine for $166.00 a tire. I am told they are a kick ass performer on a car. We will see. Still cheaper than the BFG's. Do you know how the Nitto's wear? Or is this your first pair?

The slice is in the edge of the tread. Pretty much ruined a tyre with less than 500 miles on it. Upon inspection I found the culprit to be a tap leftover from the manufacturing process. Didn't really need to roll the lip a whole lot. Bent the taps over, and did one pass for good measure.

I got your knife skills right here.

That is one beautiful thing about jeeps, parts are abundant. Good score!

Is on the Mustang. I don't have the tool, was going to do the second video's route. Only other route is change the rims which I don't really want to do. I dont see why not. The only issue would be the quality of the metal that you are trying to roll out and maybe getting the paint too hot Worked fine with the baseball bat. I didn't have to worry about paint.

I recommend a ported box designed by someone that knows what they are doing. The BTL is definitely not the answer.

"Flat" is an un-molested signal, meaning nothing is added or taken away.

I take it no one here has had to do this? I am getting ready to do the baseball bat technique here in a minute. I figure if a guy that drives a Subaru can do it, I should have no problems.

I would be busting out some green chili with all that pork, If I was you!

Makes me want a good ole sirloin or such..But I have alot of pork that needs ate up even after I am going to give some away.. Ribeye FTMFW!!

I would hope you want the eq on your phone flat. The radio station runs the signal through a sound board before transmitting. They are boosting (or more likely cutting) certain frequencies. This is why it sounds different, or bloated in your case.

Fair enough. I have read quite a bit about them failing. I studied the repair procedure too, so understand whats failing. (seal, bearings,anti-rattle piece) The re-installation is about the most technical part to preventing failure it seems.

Char-broiled FTW!

That steak was cooked one minute per side, with the grill as hot as possible. Moved to a new spot on the grill when flipped. (to make up for the grill's deficiency) And rested for 8-10 minutes before serving.

Hell ya!! I just got real hungry all of a sudden. My mom dropped off a freezer full of beef from a half cow she bought. I am jazzed as its easily 6-9 months worth. I am already thinking of the first few things I am going to make.

Alright, I think I am dialed for what to look for when buying the E46. None are deal breakers, but good to go into it eyes wide open. The biggies are avoid the SMG setup, and check the rear frame for cracks. As far as maintenance records, check to make sure the service was done at the correct intervals, and had regular fluid changes. I gather the water pump, thermostat, belts, hoses, fuel filter, tranny fluid, diff fluid, coolant, brake fluid flush, idler pulleys every 60k, o2 sensor at 100k. Whats the service interval for the VANOS? Looks like a technical process, but not out of my ability's. They claim no need to change the timing chain. Whats the likely failure of one of those? Other things I can think would be check if any of the suspension bushings, and rear springs have been replaced. And hope the window regulators still work.

They say only 1 in 5 lobster tails served in restaurants aren't ruined from one factor or another. I would go with closer to 1 in 10 are edible. This one was spot on. The W even tried it and was amazed it was tender as it was. Funny I go to a 5star steakhouse and order seafood.

You would of been jelly over the wine collection Sean. would guess was a 20' x 50' double walled walk in cellar.

Another one for you Mikey!

More shit wore out from sitting than driving. Not a lack of maintenance, just a lack of use.

He payed 6500 last week and is asking 8k this week. lol Is a low milage car at 45k.

Reminded me of driving an IROK, the way the interior is. Was fun to open up on the interstate though!

Not that I am suggesting playing with the eq on the phone, but would check to make sure its set flat. Other than that, it does not surprise me the radio signal has a boosted low end.
