@Voltagedriver
Haha im all about the techno/club music. Avicii is coming to my college on 19th so im going


@Dan
Dude that weekend was a "Hallocoming" at UNH(halloween and homecoming). I lost power at UNH and Nashua. Good thing that the bar we were at had a generator! I was at the bar from 5 to 1.....i dont think I've ever been so tired in my entire life given that I slept 2 hours the night before and tailgate saturday morning.
here is the pic from the tail gate

Snow tire cost varies a lot depending on size, I'd suggest finding the smallest wheels that fit your car (read: clear your brakes) and getting the right size so that you keep the same overall tire height so ABS and TCS aren't thrown off. Look for tires on Tire Rack, then talk to me and I'll get you some for 10% less than that with no shipping because I know the operations manager of MotoStar.

haha thanks Ted for putting so much effort in MS Paint lol.

@Wesley
Yeah Ted here(Wellesley) is in charge of all the meet ups. We need to work something out

Winter tires.....so how much for the 225/45/18 tires then???? Is it really cheaper to buy smaller rims and tires for em than just 18 inch snow tires?


btw the picture of the music video captured the moment where they sing I'm on the Boat Mother____er! lmfao

Wow, when Blizzaks are the cheapest winter wheel in your stock size, your wallet's gonna be hurtin'. Tire Rack link for 225/45/18. They recommend 225/55/16, which will save you $200 on tire cost but you'll need wheels. There might be stock Toyota wheels out there you can get used for less than that.

Again, I know a guy who will beat Tire Rack's excellent prices; and no shipping. You just need to decide what size and wheels you want to use.

Yo Yuriy, any updates on how that strut bar is playing with the Takeda? And anything else you've tried to remedy it?
