Default Winter Tires

I've got 2 winter tires for sale. Rear, one season only. They're Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Bought a winter beater, so any reasonable offer takes 'em.

You can only edit a message up to an hour after it's been posted now? Hmmmm.

Anyway, tires are 18" as my Z is a track version. I'm in Livonia...hoping to sell to someone local.

I've got 24k miles and I'm still waiting on new front tires. It's driving me nuts. Dick Scott is great, I would recommend taking it there. But all the Nissan dealers have to wait for Nissan to send the tires over from Japan. Or at least that's what Dick Scott told me, and it really makes no since. Bridgestone is a Firestone company, Firestone is a Detroit company, We all live in metro Detroit. Let's see if we can send these flipping tires half way around the plannet, THEN MABYE we can give em to ya. ******.

I brought my car to Suburban Nissan in late September for the driver window. It was not working. I mentioned that the tires were feathering again. When I returned to pick it up, they had put on 2 new tires, but had not fixed the window...

They had the tires in stock or at least at a local warehouse. These tires are made in Japan. I believe that Bridgestone owns the Firestone brand.

ok i just got rocked with a $710 bill. water got into my car and fried my BCM. my car wouldnt even start. "safe mode" they call it. i call it crazy mode because the damn thing would turn on the headlights low n high beam, hazard lights, and both wipers as soon as i put the key in, and still wouldnt start. i had to take off the front grill (i kinda ripped it off cause of how pissed i was) and get the car towed from my garage to dick scott.

i think water came in where i had drilled threw the fire wall to run my nitrous feed line. that just pisses me off even more because it could of been avoided. there goes the money i had put aside for the CF hood.

the car's at dick scott now and will be there untill "mid" next week. IM DONE MODDING MY CAR!!!! its getting outta hand.

good news is the tranny probs i was having were due to being 1 quart low on tranny fluid. i dont think nissan of AA added the right amount after re-installing my TC. they didnt adjust for the gutted TC or something. anyway that problem is solved.

enjoy your thanksgiving cause i sure as hell wont.

Yeah, That's strange. My Inbox has like two messages! Give it another shot, sounds like a bug or something.

Happy Thanksgiving guys! Only one week of 350z driving, then it's on to the 300!
