Nope. Those are JDM Yokohama DNA-GPs. They're bald as hell, but I haven't been able to afford anything else. They're 215-45-16 I believe, and they feel hard as hell, but maybe cause they're old. They have no more traction.

What should you recommend, I need a new set of tires soon.

ES100's have do not have mushy sidewalls. They are stiff as hell compared to my old Nankang EX500 205/50-15 tires.

I wish I had a before pic of my mom's 2000 Avalon engine bay before I cleaned it last week, it had 58K miles of dirt on it before (never cleaned) but now it looks like this:

I've got to ask, does the valve cover glow in the dark? I'm not dissing, just wondering.
