Looks like raw fish to me. Not interested unless I'm going fishing and need bait.
Now pan fried or coated with a nice light batter and served with chips, (sorry, Freedom Fries to you yanks) and maybe I'd try it.

Have you ever tried it?

Adding any heat to these fish would turn it to crap, like cooking a filet to extra well done.

So I just got my tires installed. Couple of things;
1. Apparently one of my old tires were torn on the inside face, to the point where you could see wires. No idea how nothing bad happened while driving.
2. Spacers are gone.
3. Holy crap, what difference a good set of tires makes. Car is super comfortable and its a lot quieter on the road. All I can hear is the exhaust note.
4. Apparently my wheels now sit on the studs, which could be a bad thing? I need to get hub centric ring adapters so the wheels are not sitting directly on the studs.
5. $600 for a set of tires and installation with lifetime rotation and alignment is an absolute great deal at costco.

The hub lips don't really take much weight off the studs. As long as you have proper lug nuts they are taking the strain not the center.

OK if the wheel hoes are bigger since the wheels will still sit flush. Bad if the wheel hole is smaller and now you have a gap between the wheel and the mounting face.

Which wheels?

My Apex wheels fit tight in the front to the lip on the hub. My Rays wheels are hot dog down the hallway.

These are the specs for the wheels. The tire guy mentioned something about getting a plastic adapters and not metal.
