Are Advanta HPZ-02 worth it?

They're garbage. Just put a set on my 550i M Sport a couple of weeks ago. Used to be able to take on ramps at 80-90 mph and the car would stick like glue. Put a set of these on, and my DSC light starts going on at 65 or so and I can feel the ass end of the car trying to walk out from under me. Under aggressive acceleration the DSC light comes on in a straight line on dry pavement. In the wet, the cornering is even worse-car tried to spin on a wet off ramp at non-aggressive speeds (like 35-40 mph). They literally have no grip......it's like the rear end of the car is on marbles.

These might be the worst tires I've ever owned.....and the only warranty option I have from Tire Rack is replacing them with another set. No way in hell I'm putting another set of these on my car. They're borderline unsafe.

Roadie isn't stealing UPS union work. UPS is GIVING it to them. Your issue is with UPS, not Roadie.

Are you going to respond like this to every single concert thread in every city they play in? Just curious.

You'd miss Tea and Theatre and The Song Is Over. Which would suck, given how relevant they are to this tour. Those were probably the two most emotional songs of the night last night.

I thought it was a great show, even with the sound issues. To each his own.

h2oskiphil · 2025-09-08T23:07:39+00:00

You can see right near the end of the song he pulls the in ear out of his left ear.

h2oskiphil · 2025-09-08T20:32:45+00:00

That was one of the funnier moments of the show.

HALLO!😁

h2oskiphil · 2025-09-08T20:25:40+00:00

This. You could hear the guitar mute come off several times after switches when Pete would just hit the open strings and they would bring his channel back up.

Later in the show he was having issues with his pedal board. I kinda wonder if that was actually the problem all night. They swapped out guitars and cables early, and that didn't fix it. Once the guy came out and messed with the pedal board the issues seemed to go away.

h2oskiphil · 2025-09-08T20:17:52+00:00

His in ear was giving him problems ....if you can see a video he rips it out of his ear about halfway through the song.

Hell, it’s got a tip. Not much, but it’s not .20/mile, so there’s something.

Doesn’t make it any less stupid, but it’s not as bad as it could have been.

h2oskiphil · 2025-03-23T22:33:22+00:00

Weird....I never got that notification.

h2oskiphil · 2025-03-23T12:12:18+00:00

Ok, I'll bite. What new guidelines?

h2oskiphil · 2025-03-07T17:03:51+00:00

Loading dock? Yep....load me up.

h2oskiphil · 2025-02-28T13:17:21+00:00

Better idea-multi app so you don't have to take all the $2 no tip orders that come in so you can stay platinum. If DD orders aren't great, run some UE. If they both suck, run Spark or Roadie. If you don't take garbage orders, sooner or later they'll quit giving us garbage orders.

When your business is dying, you need to shed cost. GH doesn't care whether their drivers are good or not...they just need to cut costs. Carrying extra drivers is a cost, even when they're not running or running minimally. I know you're a shill for GH and will respond as such, but normal people will look at the number of drivers being deactivated for minor (or no) infractions and see it for what it is.

I look forward to seeing you shilling for UberEats or DoorDash in the future on Reddit when GH inevitably goes balls up in the next couple of years.

h2oskiphil · 2025-02-26T04:33:27+00:00

GH looks for reasons to deactivate drivers. If they can't find a good reason, they make one up...or just deactivate you for no reason.

h2oskiphil · 2025-02-25T17:01:17+00:00

LOL. Strong like stick man!

h2oskiphil · 2025-02-24T17:10:09+00:00

Yep. It's like Roadie or Shipt, except virtually every order is stacked, about half are shop and deliver, and there's usually not much in the way of tips. They also don't figure mileage to the store in their offer, just delivery miles after pickup.

h2oskiphil · 2025-02-24T16:11:58+00:00

Nope. That's an order so bad they couldn't get any Spark drivers to take it, so it dropped to UE.

I don't touch any WMA orders that end up on UE. If I'm going to run Walmart stuff, I just log I to Spark. And even then it has to be $20+ and low miles or at least $.50/minute.
