I looked around in my area for about two weeks and couldn't find anyone who would even verbally sign up to that...well, other than the dealer who wanted $300 to mount and balance 4 tires. It seems they count on replacing a certain percentage of wheels and that's factored in. Tom Tice '98 M3/4 '99 540/6

So what's wrong with getting anti-seize on the lug bolts or bolt holes. I regularly use it on the lug bolts - I kinda thought that was why it was created? Am I missing something??

The RA-1 is still supposed to be a little bit streetable, but you give up some track performance over the Kumho. If you are still learning, it may be a good tire for combination street/track use. Kumho is good for driving to the events, but not much more, and Hoosier does not recommend driving on the street at all. I am a happy Kumho customer. I have the Victoracers for AutoX, and the Ecsta 712 for street.
