If it's not too busy later at work, I'll actually inspect the spoiler closer and see what it feels like.

Yeah, no adjustment but they added TRD stuff, nav, etc. $33k

I can see that for an automatic if they also have the TRD filter. But if that's $33k for a manual, that wouldn't make sense.

Check out these dope colors the 57CR is coming in. I feel like any of these would look stunning on my Whiteout.

On my way home from work today.

Well now, Tire Rack increased the price of the tires from when I tried ordering them on Saturday night. This whole experience is leaving me with a sour taste. I won't be using them in the future.

They won't work with you at all?

I sent them a message since I don't have the time to call them and wait for someone. I'd rather just pay the extra and just move on and remember who I'll keep my business with for my future needs. If they get back to me and honor the original price, great. If not, then I just won't use them and keep my business with America's Tire.

finch1750 · 05-15-2017, 03:24 PM

Yeah, I don't put a vehicle when i order tires for that reason. Sometimes they'll call before shipping but at least I can order

Kaotic Lazagna · 05-15-2017, 03:49 PM

They called me on my way to work. They readjusted the price, so hopefully I get a refund on PayPal.

Speaking of gauges, Greddy has some cool HUD turbo-related gauges coming out called Sirius Vision (link: http://www.greddy.com/products/elect.../sirius-meter/).

Would be kinda cool to have something like that just as a speedometer.

Battery died after 3 years, and with a dashcam. Pretty sure that doesn't help with the battery life.
