It was on Saturday, actually. Was doing a 250 mile drive to a Saleen Club BBQ and had a rear tire blowout due to a bad valve stem. I found a Discount Tire just up the road, but they didn't have a replacement tire. They did, however, have access to a set of Nitto NT05's, 275/35-20 in front and 315/35-20 out back. Got them delivered, mounted and me on my way in a few hours.

The other tires were getting short on tread anyways, and I was a long way from home.

Nothing about painting is fast! Patience is the key, to avoid f-ups.

You're doing yourself a disservice by not doing that. I've gotten compliments on having it in my S197 when other people drive it.
