I would love to have a MR SI.... Your car looks super clean. I'm glad we don't have to rock the front plates in Oklahoma.

No ****, had to spend some $$$$ on my roof the other day to get hail damage fixed from the last big storm. Baseball size hail seems to work wonders on destroying everything it can...... Thank god for home owners insurance.

What do you use the rack for? I thought about getting one for my snowboard, but I don't go to CO that often. But yeah, your new rims are FIRE, as AH VTEC would say.

I think it's just a model. There are no good pics of the real JACCS EG6, which sucks because that's my favorite race car hands down. There's the pic from the Best Motoring video but it's blurry.

Ah cool. One time in CO I saw a stock navy blue 92-95 Civic CX with a rack on top and I think a tow hitch too, and his license plate said MY SUV. It was awesome. I don't know what that has to do with riding bikes though, I guess that hatches are good for anything.

Back on subject, here's a hatch I'm surprised hasn't been posted in here yet. Probably because it's owner is on nwp. I have a lot of respect for this guy's work, if this white hatch is anything like the blue one was, then someone please pop the hood, cuz I want to see.

Heck yes! Has the lip and everything! I used to have a Castrol NSX (RWD) and I put a DC2 ITR body on it. I was like 13 though so it's long gone.

Yea on a 15" rim 205/50/15 is pretty much the perfect size for a hatch.

For a daily driver tire I would suggest the Falken 912. I put these on my g/f's Jetta and they handle good, are quiet, do great in the rain and should last you 30-40K if you are nice to them. One nice thing about them is you can actually rotate them since they are not directional. You can get them for about $60-$85 each I love them on the Jetta and read nothing but great reviews about them before I bought them.

I actually got them on sale through I think vulcan tires on sale buy 3 get one free so they ended up being like $180 for a full set lol cant beat that!

Here is a realllllly old pic of my car but the tires are 205/50/15 They were toyo proxies 4 and they were also great tires but I think I ended up paying more like $100 a tire for these. They have a cooler tread pattern but IMO were on par with the 912's handling wise but were more expensive and you can not rotate them. Also both IMO suck *** in the snow but do your self a big favor and just bite it and get dedicated snow tires.

Here is a great site with tons of reviews to help you find a tire.
