im in love with my g-force sports




225/45-17 size for all my tires...

Got a set of those G-Force Sports on the Contour. Fun tires, quiet, smooth, and good treadwear so far, and turn in is immediate. Very responsive tire - like you're on rails. I love them, but they are a little on the firm side for ride comfort.

I have Avon Tech M550 all season tires on the Mystique. I worked 'em out pretty good on the Dragon & they were squealin'! They were relatively new, so I was fighting the tread squirm which was pretty obvious.

The Avons are smooth, quiet, easily more comfy than the G-Force Sports, great treadwear for the performance, but they don't track as positively as the G-Force Sports. That liiiitle bit of ply in the sidewalls that offers better comfort also sacrifices the crisp responsiveness. Little more comfort was what I was looking for in these, so I'm very happy with them. Great all-round performance tire.



Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Got another package today! It's a Nuespeed short ram intake/heat shield with a K&N filter. I need to clean it up a bit, then it's going on the Golf. Man it's great being able to buy cool things like this for a car that are already designed to fit it. Contours suck.


I'm still waiting on the Kamei grill.
