in the mean time, just use some touchup to make it less visible.

when i went to the city a few weeks ago and parked my wife's fit in this tiny garage structure, first thing i thought was if i drove my z there, i would've not only scraped bottom, (steep ramps in basement garage), i would probably scrap something on my bumper due to Z's poor visibility down low.

the garage reminded me of parking structures in japan. so narrow

That's why my wife does not drive the Z to her school, the garage ramps are too steep.

dat makes sense. i kinda understood wat 'urban suv' meant.. it's like on-road offroading in those garages. lol

Happy Friday!

I just ordered a new set of tires for the wife's car. Continental TrueContacts. I've had mixed experiences with Continental extremecontact DWS on my old car not balancing properly but hope these will be a breath of fresh air. Can't be any worse than the OEM Bridgestone Dueler H/T on there now.

sounds good. ive been running the new DWS06 on my STI's winter set. they felt pretty good.

I just ahd the bright idea to sell the Z when I get rid of the Si come August and buy an Evo or STI so I can drive all year instead of garaging the poor Z for 6+ months.

dats really not a bad idea considering how great the current STI is. i recommend it if u only want to deal with one car.

thing is a blast to drive in stock form. just get some DWS06's in stock size (car comes with summers) and you're pretty much set.

Leingod · 03-18-2016, 12:39 PM

^^^ That idea will be put to rest once the Z is out and I get to drive it religiously for the season.
