As one gets older and stays single the notion of "x-mas" gifts is long gone...that gets compounded with the fact that all my family lives on the other side of the country (California).

My son makes me some really cool presents - I'm happy.

Last year I was in a relationship so that was cool.

Year before that my son was bummed out that I didn't have anything to open (he's such a sport) so I went out and bought myself a Movado, had it wrapped and told him that's what "Santa" brought me but he ws just late...lol

Probably wants to keep what's on the car, and judging by the size, these are the front tires he is replacing. You want them to match the rears.
 
I told my brother I want some Mickey Thompson ET Streets for Christmas, but it looks like it's a good idea to wait until spring to get them.
I'll settle for seeing my kids faces when they open their gifts on Christmas morning,and then getting some sleep after I drop them off at their Dad's.

WOW! Those are $417 per tire! $1867.05 out the door! can't you get away with something less expensive, Scott? Threadwear is 220, they will wear out quickly!

Absolutely correct !

I unfortunately had to replace the rears prematurely at 7000 miles :D, needless to say at a grand for the rears alone, the fronts waited until I could call it a holiday gift and car only has 10400 miles now !

This is a crappy pic, but it will give you an idea of what it looks like. View attachment 1998 He had a 40' Baja Outlaw with triple 525s before this. It was a complete nightmare. Nothing but problems.

Baja is like the pos in that field of boats, go out for a nice hard run in rough water and boat will feel like its falling apart. I like their center consoles though :D .
