Thanks for the comment, Ron.

As to "Spongebob sticky tires" I'm hoping that with these sway bars and the tall whitewalls I'm planning, I can brighten up the local SCCA SOLO II scene next summer.

I do have a set of 225/50/16 Michelin Pilot HX's with less than 1/8th" of tread, removed from a BMW Z3 that I drove 1997-2004. I kept them with the idea of using them for SOLO II with the Z3, but wound up selling it. So now I read all the posts on tires to see if anyone has tried using something like them on a PV. They are less than 25" in diameter, compared to 27" for the 775/15 tires that were on the 444 when I bought it. Maybe with the right wheel offset??? I would use them just for SOLO II.

But that's months away. Time to get back to work.
