Nice ride. How do you like those Goodyear triple tread assurance tires? I've been thinking about getting those for mine.

Ajaxus · 09-07-2005, 07:44 AM

still loving that grand am man. btw, if your gf has any hot single friends you are more than welcome to invite them to go up to the car meet on the 17th.

i like the car. nice system. how is that boston amp? almost bought one for my girls car, but i ended with a phoenix gold amp. i used to sell those boston z6 speakers...they were badazz but those xovers are HUGE. id recommend either scrapping the rear 6x9s or put the z6s in the back as well to have uniform sound all around.

i left you a comment in there, im goodguydave.

yeah, he's right.... my wife ruined the paint job on her old car with those damn magnets, even though i repeatedly told her to change location once a week.... she didn't, and her car ended up looking like an elantra with "ghost ribbons"....

what magnets are you guys talking about?

I have triple tread on my ride, and they are TEH SH!T! great in wet, great in snow, and superb in dry. also, i think they are rated to like... 80k miles... or maybe 60k... either way, ive had mine for about 8000 miles so far and they show very very little tread wear.

How much do those triple treads run?

Metallman56 · 09-07-2005, 04:20 PM

ok i am trying to adress all the questions and comments at once.
i love my tires
unfortunatly no all of her friends are either stupid ass punks or with someone, and she isnt going with us she has to work.
i love the boston amp! its the one made for 2 g5s. also i was thinking about putting boston 3-way 6x9s in the back seat where the door would be. problem is funding and where to put the amp for those. its true the z6s ROCK!
sorry about the "guys" usually when you say that to a group of people its excepted, but thanks for calling me out on it.
i rotate the magnets on a week off a week. i also use meguires tech wax so they wont fade the paint or scratch it with the dirt and crap that collects on it.
and the tires have a 80,000 mile warrenty, where i am it would be stupid to waist $400 on tires that i can only use 5 months out of the year. if i lived down south i would have got yokohama spec 2s
thanks to all who have checked it out and all the comments 2!

Metallman56 · 09-07-2005, 04:23 PM

at tire rack 118 a peice

Ajaxus · 09-07-2005, 04:44 PM

Metallman56 · 09-10-2005, 08:42 AM

i have some new pics up of my ohio gen and my old heads and lower intake manifold. if any one want either let me know. i had mine ported for about $700.

Grand_Damn · 09-10-2005, 10:42 AM

i have a sticker on mines (been there for the last 9 months)...my girl placed it on....she really like it cause it says "BRING MY SOLDIER HOME" ...one that we cant find anywhere (she got it from my dad)...i doubt she'll take of off til i get back (in 8 months)

Metallman56 · 09-10-2005, 10:16 PM

when the war is over or when she decides to take the sticker off you might have some paint issues under it. some good wax should bring it right back though. anyway thanks to you for serving our country, and i hope you return as soon as possible. i have a few buddies over there now, and my prayers go out to you all. thanks again!
