and that roundabout is in my college

gotta admit he is a good driver though

No i don't know him, but I sure will talk to him next time, he's got an exhaust too and I think it's Greddy since it's the only one available here.

the blacked out 17" looks so hot, but till now I've seen 5 different IS's doing it so it's starting to be something normal here

dno if this is the right place or ask but since we're on the topic of tires...i have Nitto Invos up front and stock Bridgestone’s in the back, i was never able to do a burnout or a donut till i changed my front tires.....why is that?

Better yet; I was never able to make my rear tires smoke….made a nice donut twice in one day w/ the current tire set up

I have the same setup but the other way around (Nittos on the rear and Bridgestones on the front) and ever since I got the Nittos I haven't had a problem with fish tailing or burning out and I got a 25l0w
