Yep all that works. Perfect fitment for these cars.

Pirelli Weatheractives are good, Wintracs are pretty much snow only. Do you have a set of wheels to set aside for just winter use?

What plastic cage?

1.5-IN are way to big. 30mm Eibach Spacers all around are the best way to go, don’t have to trim the studs and will be pretty much flush.

As long as it’s not bent (which I highly doubt it is), a rim guy will be able to fix that.

That’s what I do. It also loves to accelerate pretty hard too.

Is that from Cody Ball?

I think as long as you didn’t drive that much (5 miles) and didn’t drive hard, then I’d say you should be okay. As far as adaptive cruise control, stop and go always makes me nervous, as it sometimes is finicky and doesn’t sense stuff. I just think that’s the deficiencies in the design of the...

Yes, I actually rented a 2025 for a full week before deciding on keeping my ‘22, and lane keeping assist is no different on the 2025s then the older cars anyway. I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m honest and straightforward, you asked for thoughts and I gave you mine. I don’t want you to hurt...
