							umm...this is kind of a silly question. 
 
if you have the money, get good tyres. if you dont, then dont. 
 
get t1r's. best value street tyres ive used.

							dunno if they make emm anymore 
  
yoko es100 gets my thumbsup over t1r's 
  
a fair bit more expensive though.

							If youve got the cash and are impatient, then go ahead. 
Personally id get my dollars worth out of the tyres youve got now even if they are shitters. 
 
BTW, what should i have for breakfast tomorrow, im thinking maby nutri-grain, but i could always have some toast or even ice cream. I know ill never be an iron man no matter how much nutri-grain i down. What should i do.

							If they're livable then okay but if they're dangerous like you can't brake properly, aquaplaning on a slightly wet road then don't wait and get better tires, its the only thing connecting your car to the road, not something to skimp (sp?) on.
