Coop

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

No.

Time to add some tint to the fit. Wow thats dark. Cars like a black hole now.

Car really woke up with the last upgrade.

For the off chance you encounter a Deceptacon?

I mean it makes sense to me and I'm just a looney leftist

I feel like a gun fight with a Transformer would be...frivolous.

That's not what she said.

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.






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




Time for some clean up and removal of rust.






Little rust converter/primer



Final paint job TBD...

studs.

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.
