The cashier badgered the hell out of me for the $15 warranty. I kept telling her no.

Same here. Then the idiot manager came in to TO me.

I would have said, very loudly mind you, " Look lady, no means no!"

I can't cause a stir. I don't want to risk them saying that I threatened them.

So I walked away

Its always best to walk away

I've given up tobacco for Lent. Even though I'm not catholic

Is that allowed?

Speaking as a raised Catholic and now atheist, a good priest shouldn't be throwing stones at a believer of some sort wanting to give something up for a religious period.

LOL can't believe they're actually playing that!

There's a C&D test on a Golf with 15 through 19 inch wheels/tires.

 

[MotF Bane]

17" to 18" gives about a .1 second increase on 0-60, a 2 ft. shorter braking distance, 1 MPG difference, and .04g on the skidpad (driven by tire substance). The economy is interesting, I have no explanation. The skidpad shows variation of plus/minus .01g for sizing, .03g comes from W rated over V rated. I see no reason for that difference.

My current tires are Yokohama AS530 215/55R17 94V.

Those are tiny.

thanks

W is rated for another 19 MPH top speed (149 versus 168, both speeds I'm not sure this car can attain). W is softer, giving better skidpad figures, but at a cost of longevity of the tire.

I'm not sure I would ever see the difference in street driving between .86 and .89g, using guess numbers.

not doing my taxes tonight

If you are referencing the numbers I cited, yes, they are.
