Le Riceburners OFFICIAL Build Thread
I pretty much daily drive my car in the warmer months and I ran R888's all year, put 6k miles on them, and as long as the car holds together I will do the same again this year, and then decide if I will need to replace them or get another year out of them. There is a solid 70% tread left on them, and with 6k miles at 500+whp I definitely can't complain. I will buy another set when these are done, they hook amazingly well on the street, and they corner like crazy since that is what thy were really designed for. They also do great in the rain.
My first week I put them on I went to Minneapolis for Boost for Boobies last April, and on the way back it rained so hard the whole 6 hour drive, and I was nervous. But before long I was going 80mph with confidence on the interstate. They do surprisingly well!

I cant do it haha. I know nothing about how it works, honestly still dont trust the idea of it for making a car last long at all. And really should just use my money for axles and tvs supporting mods. But boy it sure looks tempting hah

Wont start. Crank crank crank no start.
Aaand theres a ******* radiator leak.
I am so beyond done right now. This has been a complete pain in the ass, every single step of the way. Not one single thing has gone smoothly in the entire process of this project.
Im mad. And i dont get mad ever.
