Well I went to NTB today to get my slicks mounted up (oh yeah baby!!!)
Anyways, I had a wonderful experience at NTB at Georgesville Road (Derek helped me out.. great guy and great job). So we get the slicks mounted up.. I pull out to hop on 270 to head back to my house and I notice the freaking "scratching and rubbing sound" in the rear.. Im like WTF mate, the Nittos were the same size.... 28x10.5x15
So I pull over on the on - ramp and lower the tire pressure to bring the tire away from the fender a little.. so I bring them down to around 10lbs of pressure (from the 20lbs they were at) so that helps a lot.
I get on it a little to get back in the traffic on the highway and HOLY SHIT! You know when people talk about those last moments in life, where they say you "can see the light" well thats kinda what driving on slicks with 10lbs of air at 80mph feels like....yeah very special.. Ill never switch lanes or do that again. I had to get the car home and with the fenders not being rolled I had to get it home fast so they wouldnt rub anymore.
Sooooo, moral of story is.. dont drive race cars on the road with 90/10s and M/T slicks with 10lbs of air.
Okay sucky story but the end. Now who the hell rolls fenders??????
