that longshoreman strike a few years ago held up containers for my work for almost 2 months... yeah, love the union..... anybody listen to the john&ken show at that time? it was hilarious hearing john rip on these greedy lazy union folks everyday...because it was all true!...haha....
...you can bribe your way to get containers to get released quicker...

you just need to put some money under the table for the broker to the custom. and you will have no problem getting it cleared.

bump.. time for me to look for tires too

i'm looking for 225/45R17
so i'm considering these:
my priority
1. for daily driving
2. good traction for track day or autoX
3. noise level
4. Price @_@ i wish that's not one of my consideration
5. treadwear.

RE070

which i know is everyone's favorite.. but can be alittle expensive new.. so i'm considering the option of getting takeoff if i do get these

Pirelli PZero Nero

threadwear 400
Dry traction rated 9.0 on tirerack
Around $130

Toyo Proxes 4

Threadwear 300
i have read many good review for this tire on nasioc
and recommanded by hay..

Falken Azenis RT615

I've always heard good review for the older line the azenis sport..
not sure how the new RT615 hold up
but they are alittle more pricy than other tire... around $160 per tire.

still doing more research before my make my decision thou.
