Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 tires mounted/balanced @ PTP in Fort Worth today! Goodbye howl-monster OEM Advans

I got 10,500 miles out of the stock tires, hoping to get 20k out of these.

I hear the weather there is nice today. There's a dude shoveling his car out for 1 1/2 hours outside the window, he may still be out there or dead.

What is your daily commute? I haven't broke 15k miles on mine yet.

31 miles round-trip. I do a ton of driving though, took it to MN in July, and drive it almost every day. I'm willing to bet since I bought the car in June I could count the number of days the car hasn't been driven at all on one hand.

In my quest to make this car less of a pile of shit with it's 1980's Honda interior quality equivalent I went to JoAnn Fabrics today and got a sheet of adhesive felt for $2. I cut various size pieces and placed it at all six glovebox door connection points and at four connection points for the plastic panel that sits under the glovebox. I removed the air cylinder from the glovebox door last week and am hoping this felt will take care of the remaining dash rattles from that area.

Someone needs a new sig, use this! LOL.

Good plan man, LMK how it works for ya!

**Kracka** · 12-13-2010

Cobb exhaust + Hankook tires + dash rattles fixes have REALLY quieted the car down during highway cruising! Even above 4k RPM the loudest thing I hear now is wind noise.

A//// Guy · 12-13-2010

Hahaha thats hilarious. Be glad you arent in MN where the doors would probably vibrate like a cheap sex hotels bed due to the cold plastic.

**Kracka** · 02-12-2011

Porting pr0n:

Yup, that's a pretty big gaper.

**Kracka** · 02-12-2011

Today I also put more felt all over my glovebox and after nearly 100 miles it hasn't rattled even once! How thrilling...I should sell this idea to Mitsu.

turbotalon1g · 02-12-2011

Awesome, I thought it was only old cars that rattled.
I wonder if they would give u a discount on the evo 11?
Are u bringing it up for the cruise?

Nope. Rmondoh, Planoevo, and myself are flying up. They're probably riding with Spaz and I'll be riding with my dad again.

Tell him not to throw rocks at me this time.

**Goat Blower** · 02-12-2011

I'm sure I'll be chasing down rattles myself. Drove my GSX today and it's the first thing I thing I think of besides how loud the exhaust is. I want both of these cars to be relatively quiet, although the dynamat in the GSX helps a bunch. Might be a good idea for the homorod.

**goodhart** · 02-12-2011

I've been wanting to add some felt in a few spots in my car as well. The cold makes these cars sound like a 1996 Grand Am going down the road with all the plastic sqeaks and other rattles haha

**Kracka** · 02-12-2011

Have your wife take you to Michael's or JoAnn Fabric or something...that's what I did!

**goodhart** · 02-12-2011

^^Brilliant!!! I won't look nearly as ghey then!! haha

P.S. congrats on post #16,000
