    The New Guy, 2015 Mirage in WV

    Hello everybody, my name is Donald.

    I own a beautiful, pristine rocket ship which is blue in color.

    While two of the previous statements are admittedly lies, she's still beautiful to me and definitely blue in color.

    You boys helped me a lot with problems and tough (car) decisions in the past. I look forward to sharing my experience with you folks. I think we will all get along just fine.


    Don

    SEE! I told you all the blue ones are racecars!


    Don - Congrats on your blue ones. Let's see some pictures.

    Very shrewd observation. They are, and they fit. Unfortunately my cheapo-a** attempted to run the 195/60R15 tires that came with them. They don't work, unless you don't mind riding alone with no passengers or tools. To say they rub is an understatement.

    I recommend you get those drag slicks off there and get rollin' on some pizza cutters. Check out the thread something about, "what have you done to your car lately." One of the last entries, I painted my stock OEM steel wheels black. I'm getting people asking me what year my Viper is, they look THAT HOT (well, that and mine is blue too).

    The OEM steel wheels done gotta be reeeeeal cheap.

    The pizza cutters you describe would be awesome snow shoes, I just haven't rolled the dice on anything yet. The stock steel rims are getting snow shoes, the Cobalt rims are getting 185/55R15's, hopefully of the Hankook variety soon.

    Ole girl sees 300 miles a day, and she's the best I've ever owned; she deserves something good to walk around on.
