It's Not Easy Being (a darker shade of) Green

The plastic plate holder things drilled to the bumper act as supplemental bumpers though. Around me, cars that have them, although looking a tad off, have FAR fewer parking scars than cars without them.

The other reason I really don't care about this shit is that the 86 front end is by far the ugliest of the FR-S, early BRZ, late BRZ, and 86 cars. Toyota dun fucked up. The 17+ BRZ looks waaaaaay better. With the big ass front plate it's a lot less noticeable



Continental snow tarz were ordered today, gonna get them mounted on Thursday and have the stock Prius tarz moved to my SSR for next June. I wimped out and got the ice tires instead of the performance winters, hopefully they are tolerable in the dry/wet conditions they'll see 95+% of the time.

Yeah. Your car's package tho, with the green and the ramz make up for the blobfish front end.

It's a ninja turtle front end!

Anyone have license plate frame ideas? I am going to remove the ones, leaning toward plain black plastic but something fun could be

Currently sitting at Firestone waiting for snow tire installation... It's been nice knowing you guys.

I usually go for a simple black frame.

That would be pretty funny

[CaleDeRoo]

I'd honestly go for one of those silicone ones, although the TURD off road is . Just don't like the red.

[max225]

Need that one for myself

The stock 215s must run really narrow, these 205s look at least as wide as those. Also, there is way less road noise than stock with these - those primacies must be the worst tire made under the Michelin name. No grip, squeal like crazy, tons of road noise, and 240 treadwear...

Bonus for the snow tires, at least initially they don't really squeal at all. They make a low grinding sound when they slide and that's it.

That’s such a good looking car there, Troy!

Tire monkeys jizzed all over the back wheels too... is all that goop and why is it necessary on a brand new car/wheel.

It's lube to seat the beads when it's 20 degrees out and even the snow tires are hard. Mounting tarz can be a PITA when it's warm and total when it's cold.

I'll clean it up eventually. Maybe. Or will do it.

I thought this wasn’t a requirement when the wheels and tires are ok. Also it looks like it’s 44 in Corning right meow

[troyguitar]

Eh. You can never use too much lube - and they were mounted yesterday morning.

Now that I think about it, they probably use extra on nice/new wheels more for getting the tires over the rim without scratching it than for seating the beads.
