Oh, come on. Anybody who knows a site uses cookies knows how to flush them.
In fact, Tirerack give you a cookie so you can save your car(s) in the
database and not have to re-enter them each visit. If you're that paranoid,
you should be using a cookie-blocker anyhow.

I second the nomination. When I bought my '99 9-3 SE two years ago, it had
nearly new Pirellis mounted. They were noisy as hell, but I didn't want to
waste money replacing fresh tires. A couple of months of whistling and
whoosing later, I hit a pothole and blew a sidewall -- something else
Pirellis are infamous for doing.

I replaced all four tires with Kumho Ecsta 712s because they were a serious
bargain and I liked the aggressive look. I was surprised to find out that
they were better than the much more expensive Pirellis in every way, more
stick dry and wet and far less noise. I've been told they suck in snow, but
every Saab I've owned would get around fine in a foot or less of the white
stuff on any kind of tire that happened to be mounted.

Duh... What is the difference between disabling cookies and cookie blockers?
Duh.

Well, duh, being able to manage which sites you accept cookies from and
which you don't. Disabling cookies in your browser means you have to
re-register or login every time you visit a site you may need to hit on a
regular basis -- cutting off your nose to spite your face. A cookie-blocking
applet lets you selectively accept cookies from sites where it's to your
advantage and block them from sites where it's not. But then if you weren't
as stupid as you seem to think I am, you'd know that. Duh.

It's OT anyway, but Zuke was advising people to avoid using one of the best
sources of tire and wheel info on the net because of a misplaced paranoia
about cookies. Seems silly to me, about as silly as you copping a superior
attitude on a subject where you are apparently not that well-informed.
