Probably not fish tailing. That wouldn't put much force on the tie rods. Maybe your rear toe arms but not tie rods

Put them on yesterday, today after class, i headed go an allignment shop across from the university i attend and the guys told my camber is off to. Time to invest in new struts also. 40k miles so its not that bad i guess. Now i need to find struts that are fairly priced, and stronger thwn stock maybe

Your discount is based on four key characteristics of your driving - hard braking, rapid acceleration, time of day, and miles driven. We'll see how it goes.

The tracker is small and should not get in the way.

Burned through half a tank of gas today, did some karting with a bunch of autocross buddies in between all the driving. Can't wait until we're sure the snow is gone and I can get back on summer tires.

Got her washed and detailed by Pakshak. Last wash was in December 2016.
I'm still recovering from shoulder surgery so no can wash & detail my own car.

I've been very happy with my BFG sport comp 2s but haven't tracked them. Didn't like my hankook RS3s but maybe I just expected to much of them. Everyone is gonna say pilot super sports. Most any Max or extreme summer tire will do well for you. I assume you don't want slicks since it appears to be your first track mod
