  1. hey Mac...110 links :wink:
  2. Ron Ayers has tires for about the same price as swmoto you just have to pay shipping.
  3. THAT would for sure be an issue with me also. Ouch!
  4. One more thing, you can put the laminate floor in yourself if you want to. You don't have to be a contractor to do it yourself, it is REALLY easy. All you really need is a good saw and you can rent that. Our 13 year old did part of it while I was out getting more. The laminate floor just snaps together. Super quick, super easy. Main things you want to make sure of is that you floor is clean before you start and that you leave a small gap between the wall and your flooring (if you butt it up against the wall you will come home one day and have a 6 inch buckle in your floor). Whaen you go pricing remember that you need a vapor barrier (plastic sheeting) and then baffle material (foam which the Armstrong I got came with it pre attached to each plank which IMHO is the way to go). You really don't even have to think you can do it, it's easy. And, the best thing of all is the satisfaction once you are done, knowing YOU did that!
  5. Hotter than two rats fucking in a wool sock on a Texas sidewalk. I have the same problem. I have a 99 so I don't know what temp it runs but I know if I drop below 30-40mph the temp shoots up. I have even had it overheat.
  6. Why? Lowes is the most inexpensive retailer of armstrong flooring. You wanna pay more just so you can have someone knowlegable standing there? Not me.
  7. Laminate is a little louder, but with the dogs that is why wood was out of the question for me. Laminate is indestructible, wood is not. There is more upkeep with wood, laminate is easier to care for. As far as the look, the floor I got was not cheap (compared to other laminates) but looked the best I thought. Here is the only picture I can find... Mine was Armstrong Swiftlock. It had a taper on each edge which gave it a different look. I bought mine at Lowes.
  8. It was tight for everyone butt you. maybe you need a bigger dick like grownups have. :roll:
  9. +1 I was looking at his steering and it seemed really loose to me. Of course so was his ass. :?
  10. Agreed, unless you go thru tires regularly and like doing it yourself. All you have to do is watch Mac do 2 in less than ten minutes then you realize how quick it can be done with some practice. Btw, thanks Mac, I thought it looked familiar.
  11. I think if you tighten it up just a bit you'll get rid of the wobble. If you need a hand we can arrange something.
  12. A $3,000 machine doesn't mean it'll be right or that your rims won't get scratched... Just means you be spending $70 per set the rest of your life. baaaaaah
  13. Found a nice writeup on some inexpensive ways to do it yourself... clicky here
  14. I liked it, it slicked things up real nice.
  15. Yup. I put one in my house (if my site was back up I would post a pic) not only did it turn out very nice, it was WAY more durable than real hardwood!
