[DML] Dangerous vanities of a concourse car

["spaceace3113" <spaceace3113@xxxxxxxxx>]

 So, I decided to change my tires. The tire dealer is a good friend 
of mine, the only matching set of tires he could find were Michellin 
XGT Pilots. Even though the NCT's hade exactly 485 miles on them 
they were more dry rotted than I thought. Once removed, I stepped on 
the sidewall of one of them and exposed a Huge crack between the 
treads. They only thing I would recommend to you guys with original 
tires or old ones is change them! I was kinda freaked, the last 
thing anyone wants is to get killed or wreck their car because they 
want to maintain its originality. I did keep the old tires though, 
they are just going up on the shelves of my garage. It makes one 
think though, about the keeping the car original. Im glad PJ Grady 
performed all the recalls and electrical updates on the car, Id hate 
to risk an electrical fire or whatever just because I was 
considering keeping it 100% original. I hope Im not mis-informing 
anyone about the updates but It was my impression that they cant be 
performed if the car is to compete in competition.
 As a side note, I had no idea the car would handle quite as good as 
it does with the pilots.
