stuff like tires and brakes are always good before shits happen. I take this as preventive measures because repair would cost a lot when car is modded.

will be fine if drive safely all the time, but retarded drivers like myself might get into trouble once in a while, so better the stuff ready to take care of such situation.

101 are good and I will never go over 250km any way.
also if I can keep up with mike 335 with 101 then they are good
95% of the time I drive normal so no need for better tyres
I got them on my stepwgn and I can go 80% faster than before

such narrow tires help with your fuel economy as well.

Good Point . Preventive action is more important. otherwise too late after accident happened. No one know when will be.
