....and this would be the exact reason I left the covers on my Backdraft. I have, on occasion, burned myself on the collector area. Those suckers get hot and it only takes a moments touch to get burned.

How do you like the Cooper tires. What model and size are they? Thanks

Hi Fred,

I think they're great street tires but I can't give you a meaningful review since they're the original tires and I have no comparison. There are many tire threads on the forum that discuss these tires and others as well from owners who have had different tires on their cars over time.

They are Cooper Cobra Radial GTs

Front: P235/60R-15
Rear: P295/50R-15

Thanks. Looking for options down the road. I have Falkens on mine now.

Yes ,I realize this is a 10 year old thread,but if Patrickt is still talking about it then I guess it is ok for me to say, use rubbing compound ,to get the stain off your pipes. I had a plastic bag melt on mine left a horrible stain removed it,with no scratches.

I will pass along the tip that 409 Cleaner works great at removing seared on sinew from ceramic coated pipes.
