What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2019]

I've had good luck with the 16" Sumitomos I imposed on the Roller Skate.

There is a local shop that sells Sumics which are generic Sumitimos, I've had pretty good luck with them. They are cheap and they do pretty well for an all season. For a commuter car like the Camry they are perfect.

X2. The official JD Power Initial Quality assessment on my new Falkens (also Sumitomo) is 5 star. They were cheeeep, too- $65 ea. on A-zon.

I ordered mine on Tire Rack. I went up 40 mm wider and nearly an inch taller, so I avoided all the questions by just having them mounted on the loose rims. As a bonus, the rubber sticks out past the rims, old s'cool style, which saved me from curb rash a few times. It's been fun to toss this light, cheap, low-powered econo-box into fast turns now and then.

Wifes fusion has falkens. Put a new set on at 60k and replaced them at 105k. A few thousand short of what they were rated but we weren't on top of rotating them as much as we should have so they wore fast on the front.

For the price they are a good tire I thought.

Snow showed up so I fixed the brake lines on my 03 GMC put off doing it all summer

My Dad had Sumitimos on his Camry lease. They were great. I've had these Sumic GT-As on a couple cars, including the Camry and the Lacrosse and they've always been quiet, last long and do well in the wet and snow. They are dirt cheap, mounted, balanced installed, 4 disposals and tax, it's less than $300 out the door.

The Goodyear Viva 3s are decent tire as well at a similar price point but you can only get them at Walmart and you have to put up with the goons working there. But honestly I still like the generic Sumitimos better.

I started stripping down the Jeep engine for removal. What a PITA I will never complain about a G body ever again. I have to remove the head/intake/exhaust/cats/head pipe as one unit because all fasteners are rusted away and totally inaccessible. Whoever designed this should be keel hauled.

At least it's cast. If it were a tube header it'd be cracked anyway.
