Hello everybody here! I do drive a 2013 Scion FR-S Red, but not a member of the Ottawa group yet, but looking into it.

Currently reside in Toronto, and thinking of making the move to Ottawa in the near term.
I will be visiting Ottawa for the second time either this coming Friday, or the following, and while I know where Parliament Hill is, I do not know anything else about Ottawa.

Looking for a future home, and I was wondering if any of the locals here would recommend areas or neighbourhoods to check out? Since it's gonna be a one day trip, I've so far come up with Stittsville, Orleans, and going to also check out Alymer on the QC side.

I'll be making a few visits over the next few months, but any other recommendations, or even thoughts about the places I've mentioned? Any info from the locals would be great!

Hey, good to see you on this site! It's Alan from the OTA. I would tend to agree that those spacers will stick when you remove the wheel, but tapping the rim and screwing it on isn't a bad idea either. But this is only for the stock rims, is it not? Your rims should clear the kit, depending on your offset.
I was thinking the Endurance kit wouldn't be a bad choice... Sprint kit is enough for what we do, but I do like the serviceability of the Endurance kit. Would it be worth considering, despite the cost difference?

Thanks All!
