The Nankang's? If you meant those then the answer is no. I wouldn't trust selling them to someone.

I am selling my OEM (2015 WRX) Dunlop Sport Maxx tires. 235/45/17

What'd you do with the others. Junked them? Weren't they brand new?

Junked them. The 18" tires (nankang) that were on the BBS wheels were old.

I'm selling the stock OEM WRX tires tho

@death_roll @07TLX @webby

What tire pressure would you run in the DW's?

Currently they have 35lbs (cold). Of course its a bit more when hot.

I'd imagine that is good. Is the recommended psi for the stock tires 35? I've never experienced the dw's....only the dws. I know the dw has a stiffer sidewall.

I run between 36-38 hot for normal driving and between 40-42 for sprited driving

Parts update:

- Last night before the above meet I installed the Perrin Shifter Stop

From Perrin's website

ESSENTIAL MOD
Due to the slop of the internals in the transmission, there is an unacceptable amount of horizontal slop within the 1st- and 2nd- gear shift gates. What should be little to no movement ends up being nearly 1.0 inch of play. This makes for an unnatural placement of shift gates and a lost feeling of which gear you are in. The PERRIN Shifter Stop removes this play, reducing the horizontal movement to 0.12 inches. This makes for a solid connection between the driver and transmission.

Update: I can tell a difference. It definitely tightens everything up!

I remember feeling that shifter slop when I test drove the wrx, it was one of my biggest concerns especially considering how tight the Si's gears are. I'm glad a simple part can fix it.

Yeah I was skeptical but I'm surprised it made a difference.

I didn't notice a difference with the Perrin brass shifter bushing tho :-/ glad I got it for free lol
