good point,
I know what u mean bro, i just bought 4 brand new Pirelli 210 winters 235/45/17's, not even 1 day after, i hit a little bump on my passenger side and u know what, BOOM, 2 ripped front and rear passenger side tires.
What a greeeting.
I would buy S-03's but i've heard they wear out 2 quick.
19's would be fine with 400RWH about to crush it through
on straight road.

With those HA's I don't know.... I guess if the price is right then go for it.. Another thing, did you buy all your braces new?? Because if you did then you got a killer price, considering the sways go for $500, LCB goes for around $160, and the STB is about $200. And now if you look at the other side with what that guy is selling, those HA's aren't selling for much thses days.. I was them going for around $700 and if you tack on the STB and LCB it comes ouy to be around the same...
Oh, since you like Turbo's...... Here's one of my friends with my GS parked in my driveway....

hehe, jokes,
yesturday my friend took out his dads 911 turbo out and man oh man.
i just didn't have my digital camera, but i'll post pics of my car and his here just to add to yours,
ya, i bought them USed, but only for like 4-6months on a friend of mines in LA.
I don't like buying used, thats why i'm seriously thinking maybe on the HA's, because if i buy them new here, i pay duty if i buy from the states, and if i buy here 15% on a dealer thats already eating large on them.

naw dude, i'm in Toronto.
Sweet sweet Canada JOKES. Its only where i live that they have 15% sales tax. Other provinces like quebec (damn FRENCH motha***'s) have only like 7% and so on.
Here the prices for performance parts Suck D*ck + tax.
and like i said if i buy from states + duty.
thats why i'm saying i like to deal with people rather than businesses who refuse to ship products as a gift, that way i don't pay duty when it comes over the border.
Like hell, i was looking for some damn tires for my 20's and it's just so much cheaper in the states than here its not even funny.

This guy with the TEIN HA says their only used for 2 months,
but like i said, i don't like buying used, I see Tein ha's new for $975.
I don't know if even Ha's are a good choice for me.
I know FLEX is better, but how much better?????
