Wants a new car, so I will be taking over her ride for winter months while mine goes into hibernation.

That sucks!

If anybody is looking for a winter set up I might be able to help. Have some OEM Subaru 16's. I think from older Legacy, silver face, gold cutouts. Yoko tires that seem to be in pretty good shape.
I also have some BFG Winter Slalom that are good for at least one winter on OEM WRX wheels. I probably want to keep the WRX wheels.
Last but most certainly not least I have some Nokian Hakkapeliita 7 (I think 7). They're on some Mk6 VW steelies, but the tires only have about 5k on them, if that at all.

I will more than likely want the Nokians on the WRX wheels. I'm not sure which wheel is lighter though. If I don't keep the Nokians I'll keep my WRX/BFG combo.

All tires are 205/55/16

Update

Things went well with Belair today,
I had called and booked for an appointment to be on a Saturday, but they called me during the week and suggested they do it during the week, with a lead tech,.

I notified them I would be needing a rental,
When I arrived, they had told me the rental company had been running late and it was suggested I go along on a road to test to "re-create" the issue, So i drove around with the tech for a good 20 minutes and we both agreed there was a problem, not once was any modifications questioned. They are doing more research, and will contact me either by the end of today or some time next week with a solution.

They may fix the issue, or maybe ill have a new transmission, but a work order was created, I am very impressed with this dealership, after working for a few places, I never thought a personal experience with a dealership could go so well, although having no rental created some personal issues, I am happy that things are working out with the car! better than buying a new transmission or paying out of pocket if you ask me!!

Re:Update @Ft86Chris
Sounds good so far

So no rental or they just weren't ready for with a rental?
Nice to have that ride along and get it confirmed by the tech personally though

Was no rental ready for me when I arrived, so instead of waiting they suggested I go for a quick ride along which would of been the same wait time for the rental, and id drive my car to bring me where i needed

I'm going to run an unrelated errand, I could certainly go after (about 9 or 845)

FRS_Ken · 08-14-2015, 09:15 PM

I just finished detailing my car for the show tomorrow and there are too many puddles out there to ruin it

And for the record I'll miss next Friday as I will be at Importfest
