Yea i get that. The new LED's finally make it plug and play and output is finally exceeding Halogens and approaching HID's.

Update:

Picked up a set of used snow studded tires off FB marketplace last week. They came off a previous generation Fit, so i was worried they wouldn't...fit. Quickly gave one a test. Good news they clear the caliper just barely.

Image

Image


The bad news is they were stored in wet garbage bags for several years, so they some rust. Some worse than others.

Image


Time for some clean up and removal of rust.

Image


Little rust converter/primer

Final paint job TBD...

It will be a while before they get mounted. Hopefully this year is a mild one, and they wont be needed here in the valley, but at least i will have them available for the Sierra pass.

I will not put chains on, so this is a much better alternate.

I also refuse to touch chains. Blizzaks are mind blowing in how well they work in ice.

Yea, never again. My first Stealth had a separate set of snow studded tires that came with it. Those made my car a joy for 4 years while in college up in the Tetons. I'm hoping these will be similar.
