  • my roomate says i hoard tires



    I have another one in the kitchen....

    just got these ones today


    with this much tread


    for $110 with rims. The tires still have the little rubber whisker things from when they are made.

      That's not hoarding. That's real Festiva ownership. If I had that many, I'd have a conduit pipe chained to the ceiling of my garage with all the wheels & tires hanging from it!

          Good idea, that will give me some floor space.

              Neither do I. It's a PITA.

                whenever i have to work on my car i go to the bay on post. for 5 bucks an hour for the lift and I can borrow whatever tools I want. They have EVERYTHING THERE, except for a 24mm tie rod tool.... Somewhat convenient but it would still be nice to have my own place

                    FWIW, the term "hoarding" does not apply to the following items;

                    -Lawnmowers, snowblowers, log splitters and all forms of powered equipment
                    -All tools, including both hand, electrical and cordless
                    -Automobile parts, to include engines, transmissions, wheels, tires, seats and all/any accessories
                    -Firearms, ammunition, knives, flashlights and all forms of hunting/outdoor equipment
                    -Magazines, to include "adult" periodicals and especially those pertaining to anything listed above
                    -Guitars, amplifiers and all other musical/band equipment
                    -Beer
                    -Hot Wheels

                        you should see my 4 shelf cabinet full of motor oil. I do service 4 cars in the family but a normal person buys as needed. I'm guilty.

                        On a positive note i only try to buy it on clearance or rebate, and try to manipulate/time the autozone rewards card to get it next to free when getting synthetics.

                            I've got 9 extra 12''ers. And they all came within like a month. Got 4 free from fresh for extras just in case, then festiva 2 had 5 extras in the back! All together for festiva rims I have 4 13'' and 13 12'' for 2 cars. LOL

                            If anyone wants the 13'' ones, lemme know
