Well, if that was directed at me, I didn't see the point to wasting tires that still had tread life. The car drives fine, it just looks a little different than other FDs.

No, it was directed at rotaryfdtt, but IMO, you should have replaced your rear tires as they are the wrong size. I'm sure the car "drives fine", until you have to dodge something at 80 mph...
