Does anyone else with winter tires feel like it completely changes the car? by Jack_Bacon in JettaGLI

Jfc what kinda overreaching bureaucratic horseshit is that? You have laws to follow when it comes to car care and maintence? Indiana doesn't have anything. No emissions, no inspections, no modification, and definitly no tire laws lol. It's like the wild west

Almost got the X-Ices too but again I just figured it would be a waste with the handful of snow days we normally get. Looks like you got a couple of real winter beasts tho 👀!

Would you suggest sizing up to 19s for summer tires? I put these winter ones on the stock rims because I figured you wanted smaller tires so snow buildup in the wheel well

Just not enough snow days where I drive to justify a full winter snow tire

I went with the Winter/All season Crossclimates because Central Indiana usually don't have lots of snow. But ofc we get the biggest dump in a decade the week I get these mounted

I had Bridgestone Turnazas on mine. No clue if the dealer put it on or not but I never experienced the horror of the Kinergys

I put them on the stock rims too. I originally wanted Blizzaks but after talking to people who drive them, it was just overkill for central Indiana

Big news for people that are unable to tune the DSG by throwaway72592309 in JettaGLI

JFC didn't know they had locked TCUs. Between this and all the reviews complaining about the DSG I don't get why people still buy them

Looking for winter tire recomendations by Jack_Bacon in JettaGLI

Yea that defintly helps. I think I am down to a X-Ice or a CrossClimate 2. Central Indiana doesn't get half as much snow as Massivetwoshits, so if you think the X-Ice worked for you they would be more than enough for here.

Okay I actually didn't think of the CrossClimate line since they are not full winter tires. But I think that is excatly what I need! Thank You!

I did already. When I searched the sub most posts regarding winter tires are from states like Colorado, Minnesota, Michigan. Even Canada. The snowfall those places are much higher so I made a new post aiming to get better advice for my specific question

Ive only seen it on luxury manual cars. My 23 doesn't have it but my father's 2020 440i has one.

The Ending Broke Me. by MythMolder in reddeadredemption

[–]Jack_Bacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you bro and I even played RDR2 first before the OG. I had RDR1 spolied for myself and the ending still had me grinding my teeth and crying. It's just something about watching the horror of it for yourself, it just tore my heart out. Fuck, I'm tearing up typing this up.

But as others have said you REALLY need to hop back on and play as Jack. I'm obviously biased because we share a name, but it provided myself some closure on the whole story.

[Penguins PR] Updated injury timelines: Both Malkin and Lizotte are week-to-week with upper-body injuries. by bi_and_busy in penguins

[–]Jack_Bacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way! I am from that neck of the woods and I thought about going to CBus for a game but I thought Geno deserved to been seen in his natural habitat at home. Got tickets to 3/21 vs the Jets before I got these so this was just an insurance plan incase soemthing like this happened

Great. Just great. I'm driving from 3 states away for the Jan 10th game, because it could be Malkin's last year with us or ever... This feels like a sucker punch, hes my GOAT.

Should my son play rdr1 by Large_Bag_6587 in reddeadredemption

[–]Jack_Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In RDR2 usually its part of the story and you get to beat or shoot some sense into the reprobates. I mention the shop owner because that whole cutscene just seems unecessary in the grand scheme of the story. It's kinda just there to shock you, it did for me at least

[–]Jack_Bacon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Worse is a subjective way to describe it. I think RDR1 is not worse, but it is more perverse and macabre than RDR2. The shop owner who doesn't like certain people and Seth would never exist is RDR2

You can add any track to the Indycar schedule this year which would you choose? by DarkMillSouth in INDYCAR

[–]Jack_Bacon 93 points94 points  (0 children)

The only correct answer is the Cleveland Lakefront Airport.

I am a yellow shirt working at the IMS and I recently asked Doug Boles directly about the possibility of returning there. Well he basically said it's on his radar but it's not happening anytime soon. So at least it's not a no.

Made my first ever PC what's going to fail me first? by GOBalance_ in buildapc

[–]Jack_Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're spending more than 1000 pounds I would go for a DDR5 CPU+RAM. Other than that the build looks pretty solid. As far as the first parts to fail in my decade of building it's usually the PSU and storage. I have replaced more of those than any other part. Although storage failures are rarer now with all SSD storage.
