THE WORST TIRE EVER!!!

the only time i have ever damaged my car was with these tire/wheel size combo...

615s at 245/40-18....

one driveshaft was cut and the other one was snapped out of the rear diff!!!!

Not only that, but it happened friday night with no support or friends around and i had to wait for a tow truck until like 1am and then drive the car from Etown to Norwalk, CT and then get a ride back in NY....

I still have the tires on my 18s but i will just throw them away!!! THEY SUCK ***!!!

Ohhh, and that was with around 400whp and the 2-step at 6100rpm...
