Trying to Make the Driving World a Little Less Annoying

Seasons Change

It’s finally that time of the year—birds are singing, flowers are blooming, and the snow is gone until next winter (probably, hopefully—it’s Michigan, you never know). That means it’s the time when a young/old man’s fancy lightly turns to summer tires.

And because it’s also “procrastinate filing your taxes” season, I have to write about this.

Tires, Tires, Tires

My favorite purchase for a car is tires. I’ve written about this often. And I was reminded of this as I read an article on AutoWeek about getting Yokohama tires for a VW Golf GTI. In the article, it mentions the Yokohama Advan A008, the tire (A008P) that Porsche 911s used back in the 1980s. That was the first tire I was excited to get when I got a set for my 944 Turbo.

My Rubber Fetish

I love rubber. Not just any rubber, though. I like my rubber black and circular. That’s right—I love tires.
