SX2. I'll repeat what's been said above, don't get hung up on weight. Tread compound, sidewall construction, and tread design are more important.

+44. Current commute is 3.2mi one way. Tried a slightly longer route today, but it ended up taking even less time due to lack of traffic lights. New location means an even shorter drive now. Barely...

Actually I've been pleasantly surprised at the cost of the replacement parts I've broken/lost. The kicker has been the wait time. Had to wait 10-11 weeks for a front bumper.

Nope. I'd assume it's still an issue until 2023 owners drop their oil pans to prove otherwise.

Nothing wrong with the stock filter. If you want to increase intake flow you'd be much better off ripping out the charcoal filter and calling it done.
