Yup.
Time to dollar ratio bad. One man shop. Took too much time for the almost nonexistent margin on tires. I mount my own tires and enjoy it again.

I have 225/50/15 RS2 w/ 6UL 15x8+40 front and rear. I need to pull the plastic fender crap and maybe roll the fronts. Maybe not. I'm on FM springs/kyb shocks so ride is pretty high. The handling is glorious. I used to have 225/50 rear and 205/45 front RS2 and I didn't like it. Ugh.

BTW 225/50/15 RS2 is about 9" of tread.
