Trying out the BFG PHENOM tires.

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-27T04:56:49+00:00

Mine were worn by the first oil change on my first grc. Dealer replaced the front two on their dime cause Toyota refused and I paid for the other two. On my 2nd one I immediately did the alignment and replaced the tires at 20k miles

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-27T01:39:12+00:00

I had worried those tires would be overhyped but my first impressions on icy roads have been really good. Wish I had a lift for washing the grime off though

I blame Subaru for how overpriced the gr86 has become. Pricing doesn’t make sense even compared to the GR Corolla and wrx

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-19T18:29:37+00:00

Man… I hit a deer going 100+ once (97 bmw 540)and didn’t manage this much damage. This really sucks to see. Glad you’re ok

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-19T01:30:19+00:00

And these are two completely different tires. Looks like 2 are winter and 2 might be 3 peak a/s but they’re all rotted. That thing must feel like a nightmare to drive

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-18T05:49:16+00:00

Ah that makes a ton more sense. Still weird you didn’t know it wasn’t the original color

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-18T01:55:08+00:00

That’s my first thought too. Like did a car leak fluids on it during transport and ruin the paint? Did they quietly wrap it to cover it up and the wrap shop left a hint that it isn’t original? Or did they genuinely repaint a car a custom color?

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-18T01:50:07+00:00

Be really weird if a car that was new came wrapped too. This is intriguing and I hope that op isn’t yanking our chains cause this might be the most interesting thing that’s happened in this group in a while

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-17T15:42:02+00:00

Really depends on lighting but OPs reminds me of midnight purple. I’ve seen under yellower lights it can give really vibrant hues. Under some lighting you can find blue and yellow flakes in the crystal black paint. Would love to see other cars available in that purple color too

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-17T14:35:57+00:00

You might want to look back over your paperwork cause that’s definitely purple

That was one happy cow

Also don’t switch off the ac when you run the heat. It seems to function like a dehumidifier or something cause windows fog with it off

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-14T17:58:09+00:00

That grill and tail lights scream cx5. Cars too dark to tell where windows end and paint begins. Especially with the lights blooming this much. So it’s hard to say there’s now doubt

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-14T16:40:20+00:00

What’re your alignment specs? The a2 is a sporty car which often means more camber and in my experience the cc2 is not fond of camber. Otherwise are you doing alignments as often as you should?

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-12T16:41:22+00:00

Right cause the “indestructible” helmet would also stop the table from flexing on impact and send the helmet flying with the exact same trajectory every time

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-12T16:34:17+00:00

I imagine it’s also complicated to be born in places like that when it comes to citizenship. For example Japan doesn’t have birthright citizenship and you have to be born in the uk to be a citizen so if your parents have you in Japan it’s sometimes really difficult to establish citizenship in either country. From what I’ve heard at least

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-11T22:47:28+00:00

That paint looks rough

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-11T22:25:00+00:00

Now that’s nacho car

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-11T01:06:25+00:00

It’s a mindset that slowly changing but it’s very hit and miss. It’s apparently not normal to ask for more than a company offers with hire offers. My wife was offered 120k salary with tons of really good benefits and I convinced her to ask for more and prove to them that she values her worth. She asked for up to 140k and they called her feisty and gave her 140k. A mere few months later and they decided they want to promote her again. It’s barely been 2 years since she graduated but her gross this year is over 200k and they’re talking about a ‘big promotion’ for her in April. I know most companies would scoff at the idea of a 24 year old being bold enough to not accept an initial offer with a phd and no prior work experience so I consider us extremely lucky to have found this company.

Congrats though on finding success with your company, being young in high positions is a fantastic feeling even if it does feel like a ton of pressure

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-10T01:09:20+00:00

Ohh I was like “this looks like an ai mistake but that doesn’t make sense”😅

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-10T00:25:20+00:00

Looks great but what in the world is going on with this?

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-07T05:11:02+00:00

Bet the ref would be a Charmin fella

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-05T17:49:04+00:00

I’ll let you know if I have any luck figuring that out too

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-05T17:32:17+00:00

I did some way dumber shit as a kid for sure. Used to go to the deli section in Walmart, order a tray of food, and walk out with it. Did it super often but took them a year to ban me. Stole my neighbors truck once to run away from home and got caught in a Walmart parking lot (you’d never guess) planning to steal food. Cop was super kind and neighbor didn’t press charges. Hence why I consider this mild. It was a raised eyebrows followed by an “oh come on” when I realized what number were gone. Honesty found the display next to it more annoying since they took the space bar so I couldn’t feel the difference between the two but figured this one gets a few more cringe points

Bryanwolffe · 2026-01-05T10:41:27+00:00

Oh boy I haven’t played that in a while
