| Yes. That was it. I didn't see it listed on Yokohama's site. Know anything about it? A V-rated Yoko in our size might be a great aftermarket set of tires. | |

| what do you guys think of these tips for the M: check out the T564 on this site: http://www.truckaddons.com/Catalog/subpages/toucan_tips01.htm | |

| were they Avids---those only come in T-rated in sizes for the stock rims---not sure if other Yoko styles come in sizes for the M---I am considering a set of the t-rated for the M---I had a set of V-rated Avids on my Mark VIII and they were excellent for an all season tire. I believe Rogor bought them for his M---How are they working out, Rogor? | |
| I was looking at those exact same tips tonight for myself. I like the look of two pipes and oval shape. | |

Has anyone seen this guy's 300M? What a paint job. |

Far be it from me to put down Zaino as I have long been a user and I still believe it to be one of the finest car finish products on the planet BUT, I did an experiment this afternoon mostly to satisfy my curiousity. I was cruising the Classic Motoring Acc. website http://www.properautocare.com a while back and became intrigued with their description of Pinnacle Paste Glaz and Souveran car waxes. Long story short, I ordered a Paste Glaz kit (specifically recommended for light color paints like white, silver, beige) and it arrived today. I washed my hood twice with Dawn dishwashing liquid and then ran a piece of masking tape right down the center of the hood. I went through the Zaino ritual (Z1, Z5, Z2, with Z6 between coats) on the left side, and the Pinnacle Paintworks Cleansing lotion, Paste Glaz, and Crystal Mist on the right side. I used the same Koala soft towels for buffing. (Different towels for each product.) The resultant "brilliance" surprised me. Trying to be as objective as possible, my eyes kept leaning towards the Pinnacled half of the hood. I even turned the car around to make sure the light wasn't playing tricks. The best way I can describe the shine is it's slightly more brilliant than Zaino - even sparkly! The finish also feels more slippery. Now I'm not recommending that everyone dump their Zaino and run out and get Pinnacle as Zaino is a superb product, but I found this little test interesting and I may stick with Pinnacle for a while. By the way, they make a wax (available in limited quantities) called Souveran that is specifically recommended for red and black paint finishes. (Hint, hint, sdmike2) They swear it will make red and black absolutely dazzling with zero streaking! I am not going to go into the chemistry here, but you may want to check out the website above and do some reading. It's the best site I've seen for car care. |

we all missed ya here--glad to hear you're ok---where did you store the M while you were gone---did someone start it up for you occasionally to keep the battery charged and condensation out of the systems---I'll bet you already put on another coat of Zaino and used the cleaner on the leather etc.----must be a good feelin' cruisin in the M after 6 months of riding in jeeps--- hope to see you here posting again ---and make sure you join our chat session next Wednesday at da club.
