I have another question, the tires in my moms escalade are gone, She has 22 in rims on it, wich tires would you guys recomend that give a nice smooth ride, she currently has the nittos nt404 and they are pieces of ****.they didnt even last 20,000 miles, they were on her other escalade before she traded in for a new one and the tires have alot of wear and I dont thinks my moms new escalade should be riding on those gay *** tires, And how come they make my moms car get all shaky above 70mph?

Toyo Proxes S/T are the best in my opinion and alot of others. I will be installing them on my new rims here shortly. Very sticky, great wet ahndling and they last a little while. You wont get too much mileage out of them due to being a soft compound tire but most seem to get 25K or so and thats with "performance" driving.

No ****! Im paying 220 a month with nothing on my record and under my parents name so its cheaper. It would be like 340+ a month in my own name. Why.... because of imature kids that do what hes doing and give the younger crowd a bad rap. No wonder why the insurance prices dont drop till 25 yrs old.
I hope more people let this kid know whats up before he learns the hard way or kills someone from driving like that. With his attitude, he shouldnt be driving anything besides his nikes!!
Not trying to be a dick but its true!
*jesus kid you sound about like I was when I was 16. I went around every corner siddeways and drag raced ne one who would try. YOU DO NOT HAVE THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE TO BE DOING THIS KINDA STUFF. I have been to 3 different racing schools and I race cars also. There is a time and a place for everything. you will learrn that. I still mess around a bit to and to do things that that nobody else has probably ever tried in a truck. But there is a time and a place. Ive had a couple close calls but the only accident I ever had was hitting a concrete wall at about 5mph. which was rediculus... You need to cool it dude because ppl like you who have no experience are the ones who get killed. I'm only 18, but I have been racing since I was 6. you need to learn self control and car control before you start this stuff driving...when you get your own vehichle go to an empty parking lot and play around a little one night but take it easy you can still **** up. Nomatter what anyone says on here you probably wont listen because I never did.

no matter how many time I was "grounded" because of my driving or scolded it never sank it, it still hasnt. It is just something that will hopefully get out of our systems...I guess I just get in a certain mood and nobody can really do ne thing about it...I must have race fuel running thru my viens or something...

Well hopefully I will get it out of my system too and quick too because im probaly gettin that GTO. When I barely started driving was when I used floor and burnout alot, even in little 25mph streets I would go like 65 mph, but not any more, I still floor my dads truck but not as often as before, the main reason for that is because one of my friends got caught driving, he was speeding and had no license, he was 15 and he got into alot of truble, took the car away for a month cant get his license till his 21 and parents got fined and I dont know what else. I dont know if I have mentioned this but I dont have a license yet, im waiting till im 18 to get it, however I still drive like if I had one. How do you know my name, not that I care just wondering.
