Locked up tires....
Hey guys, i think it's more or less me being paranoid but i thought i would ask what you guys thought....
comming home i was cut off and had to hit the brakes decently hard at about 100km/h, i slid for about 30feet and after inspecting my tires pretty well, i noticed that the spot where the tire contacted the pavement resulted in rubber being burned off by about the thickness of a penny, mabe a little more, havent really driven the car after that because i'm putting an intake on it but do you think i would notice anything concerning the tires?, like any small vibration or lumping?...
the **** off is i just put the tires on a week ago and they cost $500 for the fronts, but what do you guys think?...

wouldn't worry about it, if there is a vibration you can put the flat ones in the rear and wet the pavement and do a few burnouts, this will true the tires. i'm sure you are reluctant to doing it but them's the brakes (no pun untended) or you can live with it.
