    That tire is the elusive 205/0/R17 Pirelli Absolute Zero.

    Thanks a bunch. I was wondering about the size. I found a ton on Tire Rack, Tire Discounters, and Cheap Tires...but I can't decide which one to get. Would you please search and tell me which tire would be best. I'd really appreciate it...

    I watched it get towed away..... One of the two happiest days of an N14 mini owner's life.

    Did you ever find the problem? Or just had enough?

    Thanks. I loved every minute of driving it (when the cel wasn't on). Onward...

    There comes a time where one needs to cut their losses. I'm sorry it didn't work out for you, but man you really tried. I understand.

    I give people the “Philly, one finger salute” when they wave at me. The whole wave thing is stupid.

    Something on the wheel jams up against the rear brake caliper. It appears that wheel is more designed for drum brakes.

    Man, I wish you would move to Texas... Houston, to be exact. Give the middle finger salute to "Bubba" in his F250 Super-Duty with 36-inch tires and exhaust stacks, at rush hour on Loop 610 South. I'll send a get-well card to the ECU, or flowers to the funeral home. o_O

    :Jawdrop: Bummer. But like they say, at least no one was hurt.
