Great and wise people of Off-Topic land what would you do? I currently have winter tires on my stock wheels.

1. Put stock tires back on in the spring and install turbo kit that I already have.

2. Look to get new wheels with summer tires in the spring (17x8s with 235 or 17x9s with 245). Keep the winter tires on the stock wheels and sell the stock primacys. Then go e85 again for the summer and do the turbo next year.

I have finally been able to find some people who were running a turbo even with low boost on stock tires and they said they spend a lot of time spinning tires even in 3rd gear with the primacys.

Sell stock tires, pick up better material tires for stock wheels and run turbo kit.

Back when I was still interested and pandering the idea of turbo/supercharging the car, I gathered that most people get grippier tires before FI as supporting mod.

I heard a story of a guy locally who went full on FI while still on stock tires and well... his car went bye bye.

All started in the middle of a serious debate when some guy I have never even spoke to before jumps in out of nowhere and says something along the line of "well you and your followers in spam and dumbfuckery is why this forum sucks now". Ultra, Turtle, a few others and I jumped all over that and formed the Loyal Order. It almost fell apart when Ultra attempted a coup des etats while I was on vacation (can't leave the guy in charge of anything). We also were a little to high profile at that time so went underground.

Serves you right for having such a simple password. Really? hotlava? geez.
