just going by what you posted
$2500 for each tire
2500 x 4 = 10,000

The wheels are only $2500ea for 30s, and I can get some low-pro tires and still have 2 inches to flex with my swaybars on!

how "secure" is this park & ride?
wont get towed or jacked will it?
Doc,
This is the parking ride I was referring to. I think it would be easier for everyone to find, since it is right on the exit.



State Police patrol it, so I would say it is pretty secure. You can leave it there all day with no worries

I'll keep an eye out, but I've only noticed one set of 35s for sale recently that had any tread.

well ive gone as far as westminster for a food meetup
Wild Wings really arent that wild or good, but its good for a bunch of people to get together

so for me location is not really a problem, just the when/time..

Best way is to figure out where every one is coming from

I would be coming from Elkton, anywhere along the lower end of Rt 70 would be good for me. Also seems like a good central location for everyone...

I'd like to point out a potential flaw in your plan that could be deadly....

Your brakes won't work with the engine not running. Unless your emergency brakes work very well I'd say you need to get it towed home.

based off my memory and putting in everyones location, looking at google maps, best "midway point" between pulltab mike & bohnett would be windsor mill area

elkton, ashburn, glen burnie, frederick, & windsor Mill

if ashburn does not want to join us, which i dont blame based off distance vs a meal, we could go a bit higher, maybe around Towson area

then we would be splitting distance between our 2 boys in frederick and mike in elkton

and of course im not opposed to meeting a couple and letting them ride up either, but the idea is to get some jeeps together in a parking lot and chat up before we eat...

iirc, brakes will work as long as you can turn your car on, not necessarily have to turn it over, or am i mistaken?
but again i say what kinda distance are you talking about pushing, if a cop wants to get frisky alot of people can get in trouble..
