Ceramic coated. Michelin PS4s 255/35R19 (hold the foam).

In transit. BC Forged bespoke RS42s, 19x9.5 35ET, knurled bead, hub centric (M3P rear spec), hold the branding, Lunar Silver. For my Midnight Silver Metallic Tesla Model 3 Performance. Will post pictures of them on the car after they arrive and are fitted with Michelin PS4s. I had spent...

Good move! It's amazing how much hardship and wasted time results from a permanent drive failure. And with more and more people using solid state drives, failures are often more unexpected. Mechanical drives often give warning signs that solid states don't. As for how to backup, I recommend...

Since I had a bunch of spare time from avoiding repairing a washer and a dryer, I figured it was a good time to replace our ancient Moen utility sink. It was white and would no longer be similar in color to its new roommates. Plus, the old sink had a PVC tub AND legs. The plastic legs meant the...

Our old LG gas dryer stopped heating, so temporarily became an air dryer until I fixed it. Almost certainly a defective sensor. Before I could order the dryer sensor, to show support, our old LG washer gave signs its hall sensor was going out. They are less than $10 but render washer unusable...

Yeah. But I could have done without the 3 month wait wondering if whoever does the patterns will be hung over or just divorced. Could have been a little better by our tastes if a few of the patterns were thicker in the middle.

New coffee table arrived. 60"x42". Made entirely of steel with the surface patterns created by hand with various kinds of rust and then clear coated. Excuse the wiring and such

In typical form for my location (last block on the last street on an overloaded route), the toaster arrived 2 days PLUS another 5 hours late. I like that it can heat just one slot since often one of us just has a single piece of toast for breakfast. I like that you can raise the bread while...

This looked like Himalayan pink salt on the range/cooktop:

Heard good things about that model. Of course, in Scottsdale the air comes fried much of the year. I have a regular toaster arriving tomorrow if UPS is reliable. Supposedly, it can make a toasted cheese sandwich vertically, not that I plan to do that. But they are serious. I scoured all the...

Been wanting to replace my analog torque wrenches for a long time. I took an email 40% off flash sale as a sign to do it now. In-store, one day only, limited stock. Was surprised I got there soon enough to get the last 1/2" Quinn digital and grabbed a 3/8" also. They don't make a 1/4" but I very...

How does the booster work? Is it "sucking" on the feed line to augment water pressure?

Been wanting an OLED TV for a while but our two existing TVs were thwarting that by being reliable. But finally, the guest room TV, an old Visio 80" HD, started freezing up when powered on 1 in 10 times. So, the 86" LG 4K family room TV will be demoted to guest room duty and be replaced by an...

Bought a swappable band for the Galaxy watch that's more formal. Adjusting size was a PITA. You have to remove two cross pins to remove a link. Not much of a problem with the provided tool. But to connect what was on both sides back together requires getting one of those pins thru seven...

Galaxy Watch 6 44mm has arrived. Needs an additional and more formal band.
