They rock according to Jeff, Pete, and Tim. And no one has beaten PT's price on them, so it was an easy choice. I would have gone with Carbotech XP10s if it wasn't for the price.

You don't want ET800'S for street driving unless you like a LOT of noise. There a track pad. I have a set of ET500's (comparable to DS2500's) I'm waiting to put in, just one fo the many things I need to do...

I was all gun-ho about the Girodisc too! What a sad mistake. People were hyping them up, so I bought them. I think I even recommended them to you...sorry bro! They're ok for street driving I guess.

I don't see why not! From April to September at least. Then throw the Girodisc back on for winter duty.

how did you end up in jersey btw?

they most annoying and confusing part of the city is in old city on 4 street when following signs for 676. you make an innocent right turn and boom you're on the bridge to jersey. they do it on purpose!
Well I decided I wanted to explore a bit and pick up food about 4 minutes later I was moving down 76 and soon enough I'm in jersey. The bridge does have a legit bad smell.

You will like your map stuff I have their 02 dump downpipe and it is a quality piece.

I have DD on 800s all winter no problems, even in the snow without antilock brakes. And they are not that loud.

Had Blue too. Also had Green on New Year's. There probably isn't much difference between the two....except for $100.
