You might reread your post where you said I "thought" and "placebo" in reference to bounce, and I took exception to your amateurish analysis when we were talking about "CARS". When you've been in the business, any attempt to analyze a person from his posts on a 350Z website, is an ignorant and insulting thing to do. Even if I hadn't been in the business before, it is still insulting on a CAR site, and my opinion is just as good as yours, amounting to not much in cyberspace.

Oh, don't post me again on this or any other subject, or I will report your attitude to the Moderator. You need to read the "Rules", they are quite serious about them. I just hit my ignore button.

Boomer--hoisted on your own petard.

wow...somebody forgot to take their happy pills today

Go ahead and report me to a moderator...I did absolutely nothing wrong.

Now....to the problem. IMO the springs/shocks are not working in harmony. I have a feeling that the dampening of the shocks wasnt tuned properly. Tires ARE NOT the problem. You can put Michelin Energy's(Luxury car tires) on the car and it will still bounch.

Another amateur psychologist, who asked you to chime in, are you his doppelganger? I've had Michelin Energy tires on an Accord, their sidewalls flex and will bounce more than the A/Ss or 040s on anything. Again, an inappropriate comparison. I would invite either of you to read about the A/Ss, they have a very stiff sidewall, but a softer tread to handle better in all kinds of weather. Have either of you read the write-ups and customer comments in Tire Rack?

I'm not selling these tires, they worked better on my 350Z where I live. How hard is that to understand?

If you haven't read about them, then you don't understand that their ratings in every performance category equaled or bettered the OE 040s which totally suck under 50 degrees and ride like a brick almost everywhere. BTW, the A/Ss are Ultra High Performance All Season tires, not Touring or any other "soft" tire you might imagine.

As for opinions, your buddy's remarks were insulting to me and your remark was uncalled for as well. If both of you don't have a clue about the difference between insults and opinions, we have nothing more to discuss, do we? You are not welcome to say anything further to me.

Guys-
Enough arguing, I'm closing this thread because it seems as though it's only going to get worse. If you feel it's necessary, you may start another thread on the topic. Remember, we all have opinions, and criticizing someone for their opinion is ridiculous. All you have to do is respect each others opinions and move on, why waste the time arguing? Thanks,
Jill
