I was lol when I read it, figured you were excited

I here the qualifiers are real nice, R1-forum has a lot of people running them with no complaints. Shoot the best commuter tire is the 208 dunlop nice grip to, nothing compared to the PP or the qualifiers though, except for mileage
Did you get the valves adjusted?

If the shop you go to is good you should post about it so foos in your area can go and not just be at the mercy of the stealership. Down here the only place I will ever go to again is called Mach 1 in Costa Mesa.

I was saying you should post who they are, name and area, so others who need a shop can find a good one.
