Finally after 1 year....pics of the R
Just cleaned up the R a couple of days ago. Doesn't look bad after a year of hard knocks!
I got a couple of NICE dings (just from chips, and some azzwipe that clipped me once), but I used a clay bar, and turtle wax for black cars (with some chip remover crayon) and the dings look WAY better!
Eventually, I will get them fixed professionally.
Alright I used a little help from my wife too!

Hasn't rained since I put them on, but I really do like the tires a lot. I'm not really sure stacked against the RE010's though. I think the RE010's are a little more predictable, but the Falken's stick extremely well! They still get !

Do the 205's make the car feel "squirmy" on uneven surfaces? Cus I had 205/50 RE010's on an old set of CW ITR rims and they felt that way. I prefered the 195/55's hands down.

That's exactly it; it does! It really grabs (it's a sticky tire), its just that it seems unpredictable at times. Hopefully nobody takes me wrong, because I would still highly recommend the tire, espc at $57 a tire!

I have to say that I was floored with the results. I have always used Meguiars #7, but I have to hand it to the Turtle wax for resoring some of the chips I have from Pittsburg's chitty roads. http://shop.interstat.net/washthecar...uct_id/104.htm

Such a nice black R........just like my own...
But everytime I look at a black R, I realize it looks small and slim.
Damn, I`m thinking of changing my R`s paint
