The new tire is balanced and replaced on the car. For two hundred some dollars I wish I could have actually have felt some kind of performance upgrade. Unfortunately it will only not look absolutely hideous with a red spare tire on. Thank god for that, it was killing me! Over the weekend I looked at a few new Porsche's and actually got to take one home for the day. 2007 Carrera 4s. The car I am talking about was discussed in a previous post. This car makes mine look dated which I hate but the motors power felt almost exactly the same. Besides flashy brake calipers and a sick looking spoiler the cars are very comparable. Oh yeah, except for the tens of thousands of dollars that separate the two. Hahaha. If I keep working for the next 12 years and not spend a cent I should be able to afford it. Here's a pic.....

"Porsche Race International," is holding an open event at Maple Grove race track. I have entered my Carrera in for show and slalom events. The date for the meet is in April and before then I should have new wheels and the Bilstien suspension featured on the right hand side of the page. Until then I am still working on getting this new tire. Apparently, the Falken series tire is extremely hard to find. By Monday everything should be in order.

The Falken series performance tire is an upgrade for my model Porsche. When I got them put on when purchasing the car I didn't think much of cost.
After last weeks little, "man hole protruding 4 inches escapade" I have quickly learned why they call them "performance" tires. At $211.00 bucks these rubber treads should be making my car faster or something! I guess I will settle for the advancements in handling.
