I changed the oil and put the z into storage Sunday (using a spot in my parents garage). At least my new dd gets a spot in my one car garage.

I also put away the Z this weekend. Powered through the 45* temps on Saturday and washed/detailed as well. She's under the cover until March/April :(

Did you end up getting the Golf?

I am thinking about replacing my stock Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tires with a set of all season tires for occasional winter driving (non snowy days). Any reputable tire shops you guys recommend for mounting the tires near western burbs? Thanks

osbornsm 11-13-2014 09:15 AM

This is the ONLY shop i trust with my powdercoated wheels.

Called KO tire. Only open M-F, but if you want pefection... go there.

Tell em Oz sent you.

I think I'm starting to enjoy modifying more than driving. So I'm actually looking forward to this time of year to do some shopping. As soon as I can coordinate a warm enough day and my mechanics availability, I've got a big box full of parts to install already. :)

Same here. I'm just glad it warmed up a little this weekend, had to do some work on the Camry. I hate working on a car in the cold.

Fuok... my seat won't get here until late Jan.

Guess that gives me plenty of time to work out that airbag resistor thing.
