Hahahaha .. no comment.

 

It sure was fun at the right time though. Pulling donuts on pavement, laying down rubber, lots of noise, etc. It was hell in the winter though. My WRX was a amazingly huge improvement, but it took away some of the fun. My LGT has brought it back. Once again I can throw the tail end around on snow, sand, etc.

:lol:

 

Will do ! Ill swap em tomorrow, I cant believe I did not know this. Thanks again.

 

Don't worry about it. I got in a rush putting my new tires on this Spring and almost put the first one on the wrong way. I had a friend over and he noticed. My problem was that I was looking at an arrow shaped design on the sidewall instead of the actual rotation arrow.

 

I can't see your rear tires well enough to tell if they are facing the right direction or not. Check them before you swap them, you might only have the fronts reversed.

Hmm ... directional tires, ill have to look into that

 

Just to be safe, only drive backwards until you swap them side to side.

 

Seriously, you might see an amazing difference when you switch them around. The first car I had with directional tires was a RWD Mustang GT. Tires were awesome going forward, but one time I tried to back up on a slight hill on wet grass. I couldn't get any traction.

but aren't those directional tires running the wrong way?

 

I think you're right. Here's a large view from Tirerack that shows the rotation arrow that looks like it goes the same way as the tire tread 'points'.

Very Nice, your headlights have some weird orange thing in them though.

 

 

Ya, and I have Yellow stripe up my back to match. I don't have guts to do that mod.

Earlier in this thread I had posted Winter pictures of my LGT wagon with the factory 17" wheels. I finally got to install my new summer wheels so thought I'd post some new pics. These are the 18" 5Zigen SC3000 wheels in hyper black.

If you look back at page 2, you'll find pics of my car with a 35% tint. It looks lighter than BigJack's, but my shots were taken on a very bright day (snow all around). I expect BigJack's is pretty close to mine in tint value.

I think the NBP is more blue in person. The ABP seems to lean towards gray.

 

Agreed. I see the same.

 

I happen to have a picture that has both colours in it. However, it wasn't taken to show the comparision, so it not a great sample. Anyway, I've attached it (heavily cropped to get the size down). The car on the left is the ABP and the right is an 07 NBP. It is difficult to see the difference but have a look around the bright areas.

My brand new LGT. Picked it up Thursday night, got it tinted and a clear bra on Friday and took these pictures on Saturday, posted these on Sunday.
