That does look good, they look almost exactly like the sensors

 

I know, it's crazy what tires cost. I wanted to jump up to a 285/65/18 but it would have been around $300-400 more than staying with 275/65/18.

That's was a quick reminder why I don't want a level/lift.

 

The had great traction with the little bit of ice and snow we got here and in the mud and overall traction. I dropped MPG running them but I also jumped from a 265/60/18 to the 275/65/18. Wasn't so much the size but the weight dofference that took the mpg down. something like 14lbs a tire more than the oem Michelins

 

 

I didn't see any info on what they weigh but I have heard they're quite a bit heavier than the Michelins. IIRC my dad had them on his 07 for awhile before he sold it and always said he liked them but they were loud. I do remember them being a lot softer than the Terra Grapplers I had on my 04.

We'll see how they hold up, they have to be better than the stock Michelins that's on it now. They're down to the wear bar with 32,800 miles.

 

Bought a new set of new tires for the Cavalier back in September -- $308.00 including Discount's lifetime balance and rotations.....

 

If my Cavalier makes it through this set of tires its getting the best tires the local junk yard has. I just can't imagine it lasting much longer than those tires will

 

Mine starting to use more oil than gas( not really) but 2 to 3 quarts every 3k miles

weird thing is no leaks, no smoke or anything. it just drinks it and keeps running like a top.

 

That just means it's finally getting broke in

I've put about 8k miles on mine since I've had it and haven't changed the oil in it. I'm not sure when the last time it was changed but I do know the filter looks like it was put on from the factory in 94 I'll add a little used oil from the truck here and there and keep going. I kind of want to see how long it will last with doing the bare minimum.

 

18s are always more expensive compared to 17s or 20s

 

late 90's crew cab short beds
70's supercab/crew cabs

eventually it'll be back to regular cab short beds

 

 

Got ahold of a killer Pecan or Acorn today. Damn thing hit full force






I have 5 year warranty on the windshield for when I bought the truck. it'll be covered for free only thing is safelite does the work.

 

Just me or is that bumper a little lower on the drivers side. Must be all that torque twisting the frame.

 

definetly lower. It's been hit to much in parking lots

to low on drivers side the it goes up to a very small gap in middle under tailgate then start going lower on the passenger side. annoys me but it is what it is.
