Yeah might as well wait till the iphone 5 comes out in less than a month. That's what I am doing. I payed 100 for my iphone 4 and its not worth paying almost the same amount for the phone to fix the crack thats on mine.

Are you grooving the TSLs or just taking out the wear bars?

Grooving them will make awesome traction, but the will wear super fast since you DD that thing. They also start to chunk. I only state my concerns bcause I know you just got them.

If your just cutting out the wear bars, you will be just fine. I cant believe how tall they make the wear bars. I guess Interco thinks we need new tires when they are at 1/4 tread life!

Grooving with a grinder is no fun at all!!!!....its a smokey mess!


I hope to hear some news on the red hudfab xj today......I spent an hour and a half talking with the shop owner, and he seems just as baffled as me. They have a lot more diag equipment than I do, so my hopes are high.(plus the guy working on it is a master ASE tech)

Happy Thursday!!

Exacly. My Samsung Infuse has alread been replaced on the market by the Galaxy 3, so there's zero point in fixing it.

NOT to mention fixing the glass yourself can be a hassle.

You and I think alike my man. I am grooving them and cutting out the wear bars. i did not get them new. Three of them are down to the wear bars (with 1/4" of tread left wtf) and I also plan to sipe them so they suck less when the snow starts flying.

That's the "sell them now, or you won't make any money" bar.

On a side note, 5x super swamper TSL SX 33x15.5 up for sale soonish. :P

Congrats on the purchase Ryan. Make sure to use a god awful amount of RTV. Way more than seems humanly necessary, after you clean the bloody jesus outta the surfaces.... I think mine stopped leaking but I haven't checked in a week or so, but I haven't been driving it. You can call on me for help if I'm somehow available and around haha. I still owe you for helping me!

I'm proud to say I've never broken one of my phones Not even just an iPhone, I'm talking about phones in general. I've had an otterbox for like a year and a half in one form or another and I HAVE slipped and dropped my phone multiple times and not once has it broken... Knocking on wood.
