The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

No power to justify wider wheels or tires. 205s on 8s are the optimum combo.
 
I would have the custom built Motegi's that are on the SkyActiv-D P2 car

Best I could find for you.

I like them, especially for under $700 for a set of 18x8.5. They are my more affordable option to the RPF1's
 
I sold the Speed 3 last Saturday, I got the full asking price and got rid of the snow tire/ wheels as well.

Now I need to put new tires on the Miata, What options should I look at? The car is 98% street 2% auto-x.
 
Slow day Nate? You seem a bit more active than normal today

Yes it is. Well, task wise it's slow but I'm getting a lot of random people asking stupid questions. I think other departments are finding I'm not as "nice" as my co-worker when it comes to finding answers that have nothing to do with my department.
 
I'd say get something from the extreme performance category. Even though it's 98% street, you'll still have something fun for the autocrosses. Plus, with the relatively low amount of miles that you drive the car the tires will still last 2-3 years which is all that you want to have a set of sticky summer tires for anyways.

Rivals, Z2s, and RS3 V2s are the choice tires at the moment. Dunlop should be coming out with the Star Spec Z2 any day now as well.
 
I'm waiting on the signal improvement plans from a few years ago so I can verify the signals operation and conclude no impact due to the new development. Meanwhile, Im working on the new signal, to quickly time it properly enough for this impact study

Marc, are you going to DD the Miata now?

Evan, yes I will be dding. the Miata for the summer and the truck or CX -7 in the winter.
 
Anyone near the middle of the state looking to buy a Mazda, I can highly recommend Matt Castrucci in Dayton. They put holes for a license plate in the front bumper after I told them I didn't want them (new car off the truck). After the GM found out about it, he told me they would swap it out when they got another one. That took place today. They also gave me a $50 gas card for the trouble. That is what I call going above and beyond.
 
But alas, Fatty is my only car. That's one of the stipulations when I looked into collector plates. But Fez has them now for his MS6. I'm jelly. haha

edit- god damn it. I got Fez's avatar mixed up with Patrick's. haha #oldpeopleproblems

Get another car. Everyone needs a beater. :)
I've had this avatar since day 1 so No excuse! :P
