You can buy my tires. I have that exact tire combo (245/35/19 front, 275/30/19 rear) on my car which I have put about 3000 miles on. They look pretty much brand new. I want to try the new Toyo's and have been thinking about selling them. I'm outside of Rochester if that's not to far you could check them out or I could send you pictures.

 

How much do you want for them and you can email me pics to SixRB6@aol.com.

Give me a tread view side view and whatever else you think will be helpful

 

Just sent you an email with pics.

 

SixRb6 congrats and you saved money.

 

No cats flow as good as the RT's ....bad side is they do not work in our car with out collapsing...The Crawfords I have now sound good but dont flow nearly as good .

 

Can any who have had the RT Cats fail describe the difference in exhaust sound? I am trying to seeif this is my issue now.

Thanks.

The exhaust sounds very mumbled and there is a noticeable difference in a loss of power.. its not a good thing because it causes a lot of backpressure that could damage your engine.

 

Thanks Tonio. I have done some more searching and found other threads. it sounds like what I am experiencing may be the R/T's collapsing.

I have a set of Crawfords sitting at home I bought last year & never put on so I am going to try and find a shop to switch them out this week to see if that does the trick.

 

You will more than likely need to re-tune your car after you put on the Crawford cats . Your gonna gain some boost because they are more restrictive . I gained 1.5psi when I switched

 

Thanks Booger, that's what I thought anyway. I plan a tune after any intake or exhaust mod. I had Crawfords on a long time ago and I remembered that they were more restrictive. I think they were a little quieter than the R/T's too which is a plus. I just hope it is the cats that are causing my current woes and not something else. I will update after I have them changed out.

 

Mine collapsed when I was at the track .Thought I had broke something inside the motor . You will be able to tell once you get them off . The metal inside pushes out in the middle and the reast collapses down and plugs up the exhaust ....good luck

 

Mine failed after 6 days and it felt like a 4 banger. then went into limp mode

 

Just got a call from the shop. The passenger side cat is collapsed. Now the problem is they are telling me there is not enough room on the Crawfords to weld a bung for the wideband before the cat! I am pretty sure my old Crawfods had the bung there.

Those of you with Crawfords, can you verify if the wideband was successfully welded before the cat?

 

It was the cats - whew! The Crawfords are in and sound is back to normal. Here is the culprit...
