    New Shoes

    Man, i got my 89 coupe today, and so i went and put "new" tires on it.
    Theres a local shop that sells nearly new tires (mine still had nubbies) at crazy low prices.

    So i got a matched set of Michelin Pilot XGT H4's.

    I have to say, for the price i paid, this is a happenin tire. (150 mounted & balanced)

    I took along my normal curves, stuck to the pavement like a dream.
    Granted its no summer tire, but tis still pretty good.
