What have you done to your P5 today?

alexelie said:
i bought my new tire. 225/45/16. they are maxxis stg...i bought what they had in this size. I alos, bought 5 mm spacer that were 4$ each(i thought spacer were more like 50$ for two). They are not hub centric tho.

You don't want those. Will tear apart your hubs, wheel bearings, tie rod ends, ect... That and the vibrations while you drive from your wheel being out of balance will probly drive you nuts; not to mention eat up your tires irregularly.

You can find plenty of cheap hubcentric 5mm spacers on ebay.
 
still dealing with this guys insurance company! after reading some reviews it doesnt sound like ill be getting my car fixed. seems like they are notorious for not paying and trying to say you havent filed proper paperwork for the claim. this will be week 4 of trying to get them to pay up. cant even get a call back from them. anyone wanna take a ride out to the elgin office with me and break necks?

You do know that 1 of the big reasons you pay for your insurance, is that you get them to do all the legal BS for you, so you don't have to put up with dealing with the other company.

I'm just sayin.

yes i know this. but seeing as im not filing a claim due to not having collision on my policy with them they arent going to be doing anything for me.

trust me if i had collision it would have already been fixed by mine and they could deal with them. i have state farm and have never had issues with them. they just arent going to be doing anything with this as of now.

If you're dealing with the other dude's insurance company, I'm imagining it's because it was his fault, right? In that case, it doesn't really matter what insurance you have.

yes it was his fault. i was stating what insurance i had because i assumed you were thinking they were slacking on their part. they would have taken care of it already if i had collision and of course would have dealt with all the legal bs. but now it looks like im screwed because this company sucks. 110 complaints filed with the bbb. suprisingly have a c- rating with them. with the reviews i read i figured it would have been worse. owell i guess i keep calling the guy everyday of the week. maybe every few hours if i have to. he didnt seem to care to call me back until i left his supervisor a message.
 
Oil change and seafoam for the the rough idle. It seems to have helped some...I may eventually need to do plugs as well. My heart sank as I measured how much oil came out of the car...she burns too much. (sad2)

I don't even wanna talk about oil. I've gone through 10 quarts in the last 8 months and that's not including oil changes. Had oil leaks everywhere.

I just want the car to hold up for one more year and then hopefully I'll have the ability to purchase something new and start working on the P5 as a project.

Glad you finally got it done...

I put some 225's on today, but am going to order 245's...these just are not as big as I was wanting...not enough bulge...
