hehehehe..........thanks......
the MICHELINS are awesome, extremely QUIET, truck handles very well especially in the South FLORIDA Tropical storms!


I've bought a lot of tires the last 50 years and I keep coming back to MICHELIN.....very long lasting, smooth, quiet and never had a blow-out
whereas, I have had tire failures with other makes.

With tires, you get what you pay for, IMHO.

I couldn't agree more...I just bought my first set of Michelins, and LOVE them so far. They definitely feel different than any other tire I've had on. They have a soft feel when driving, but when you hit a bump, they feel normal, (it's hard to explain, hope you get the picture). I put the same tires on my
'02 King Ranch, and stayed with the stock size.

Zaino is AWESOME. Its definitely worth the money. The car wash alone makes it shine like nothing else. My sig is after one coat. I need new pics, it looks even better now.

You're absolutely correct, rpittman....ZAINO, for me, is the BEST!
I've tried a lot of the other stuff from expensive wax's, which I use occasionally but only for a "top-coat" AFTER the ZAINO.....
and I've tried Mcquires and Mothers and NXT and the other POLYMERS, but I keep coming back to ZAINO.

Some people think it's too pricey, but for the number of MONTHS that it "beads" water it's well worth it.....and I'm in the SOUTH FLORIDA HEAT, HUMIDITY and tropical storms!

Zaino???

hey guys, I see your talking about ZAINO i look it up online and was wondering how well does it work. I'm in Miami and i've tried alot of Waxes and Cleaners and wheel shines, the girl at PepBoys makes fun of me and always asks me if I plan on trying all the waxes. I use the meguiars gold class wash, gold class wax, stoner wheel shine, no rim cleaner( I had a bad experience when i bought my first pair of chrome Rims they were 18" and cost $2200 back in 1997 when the 20" were just coming out i used a degreaser and mess up the shine ever since then i use just soap and water and some elbow grease.) I have my factory 20" rims so try to keep them clean. I like to use the Eagle Wax-as-you dry in between waxes, I think it helps. and i use the meguiars leather conditioner for the inside.

what do you guys recommend. for a complete kit.

thanks for whatever input you might have.

H.Fox
