I had an idea this evening, let's see what you guys think.
Backstory: I got a second set of wheels for my car (87 BMW e28) and with them I also got a pair of wheels thinking I could replace my full size spare. Unfortunately the extra pair only fits the rear.
I'm thinking since the car is rear wheel drive most of the wear on the tires when doing power slides, donuts, etc. is on the rear. Should I keep the extra pair of wheels just for having fun with junk tires?
Yep that's what grassroots drifters usually do, they run good EPS tires and swap the rears for their hooning wheels with cheapo tires for drifting.
i think you need at least 3 more sets of "hooning" wheels clad with different tires for different situations... hooning on gravel roads in the summer requires different tires than hooning around town after a blizzard before the plows come out...
And you have to waste a thread here . . . ?!?!?!
Of COURSE not ! Sell them off, pocket the ten bucks profit and spend it on a nice burger and fries for your effort.
Last thing you need to be doin' is running around burning the tread off of you discount tires and keeping the neighbors awake at night.
i usually keep a spare set of steelies for just this reason. i support cheep tires and lots of black marks
