I'm not sure if my fellow Hakone owners have noticed that tree sap seems to react with the metal flake in the paint.. my car's looking like it's painted using solid green..

What's going on with the rear wheel? Looks like it's got some positive camber going on..

Nah. Stock suspension. Just perspective plus the fact that these are 16x7 wheels with 205/55-16 snow tires. Makes it look skinny.

Of course, by design. This is a "-1" winter setup here in New England, designed to optimize winter traction by decreasing the contact patch and increasing the lbs/in(squared).

I do a lot of winter driving in snow. They work great! I use 215/45-17 Michelin PS4's during the rest of the year and have much better traction than OEM.

I have the same size on steel wheels. Have for years.
They remain skinny!
