Pulled her out of storage (from a converted chicken barn) and ripped back into the city yesterday.  Always puts a smile on my face.  :D

Got a nail in my rear tire, Kal Tire won't fix it.. there's 3/32 tread left..  take it for a second opinion, or get new tires?

Fronts are Dunlop Star Specs.. will it be a problem getting a not-so-sticky tire in the rear?  Any recommendations for mostly casual street driving?

E: Leaning towards Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Hankook RS4...

I'm really enjoying my PSS on my stock rims.
If the sea was vodka, and I was a duck.
I would swim to the bottom, and drink my way up.
But the sea isn't vodka, and I'm not a duck.
So give me the vodka, and stfu.

Modern tread compounds are pretty impressive. Lots of people are moving towards the Pilot 4S as a premium tire. There are tons of excellent bang for your buck tires though. For a street tire you can't go wrong with Firehawk Indy 500's or the Falken 615K+ for more grip.

Thanks Stephen!

The PSS is discontinued, placed by the 4S.  It's a lot of dough though.. I'll consider the other two you mentioned.

Ah yes. The P4S is expensive, and last time I checked they didn't make anything <18". Not sure if that's changed.
