Should I go by what the tire says or what the vehicle says? I've always thought it was the door but my dad is saying the tire. Tell me im right /o/
>>15288256
The one on your door is for the factory tires. If you have factory tires, listen to what the door says. If you have anything but factory tires, go by what the tire says.
>>15288256
Don't most tires just say the maximum PSI and not the recommended PSI? You don't want to fill to max m8.
>>15288256
Aftermarket tires, especially when they're far newer than the car fill it up to the tires sidewall max pressure rating

The live action movie is not canon
Oh no!
You silly /o/tist! You're going way over the speed limit and now you will never be able to slow down enough to avoid getting caught by the speed camera.
What will you do?
>>15282498
Ask to face my accusor
>Living in a nanny-state shithole with speed cameras
>>15282503
they thought of this
in countys where they have cameras they will schedule all 500 people that got a ticket that month to come into court on the same day then they will have the dude who reviews the cameras and pictures and you will have to face him
at least this was the case with my old room mate in cuyahoga county
2000s Xterra vs 2000s 4runner on a $4500 budget, help plix.
Also any other recommendations are welcome!
I'd rather have the 4 runner since they're more common and have a better aftermarket. Also here's some garunteed replies for your thread, OP.
THE XTERRA IS A GIRLS CAR!
You are going to get alot more xterra for 4500 than you will 4runner. Around here 4runners and tacos are ridiculously overpriced
>>15282062
I thought of that, but a "good" xterra is cheaper in my area than a "good" 4runner.
What did you do to your car today /o/?
I sanded the machining marks out of my wheels then buffed em.
Next is paint ofc.

The Colorado exists.

they are good like machines.
Comes in manual too
You can't afford it.
Which state has the worst drivers?
>tfw 90% of the people I have to pass on the right are from Ohio
>>15277692
What part of ohio? I drive southeast to northeast a lot and people camp the left lane all the time.
>>15277692
you're doin' it wrong you're suposed to stay veryclose behind them
and wait for them to brake check you so you can crash your
that's the american way

>FWD supposedly provides better traction
Someone explain where this deeply rooted idiocy stems from.
>car's front end lifts up during acceleration, meaning less traction at the front wheels but more at the rear
Even if you say
>the RWD has no weight in the rear
It's cheap and easy to throw in some sandbags for trunk weight for winter conditions, and they can double as traction assistance if you get stuck too.
>>15290487
FF is for CUKS!

And the opposite happens under braking. The front end dives, providing more traction for the front wheels.
And if you're about to enter a corner, what are you more likely to be doing?
If you are gentle on the acceleration FWD will put power down, if you floor it from a stop you're just going to get wheelspin and wheelhop. Talking winter driving of course, not FWD drag cars.
FWD is definitely better than RWD for winter driving.
Why isnt this car discussed more often?
Im considering one but theres hardly any videos of or reviews. (the 2010 version, not the new one)
>>15282668
just get an ST, dont pay the RS tax
>>15282668
Well it wasn't sold in the US so we americunts can't help you out
>>15282674
That might be why
One thing that puts me off is the fact its fwd
other than that it seems great, price isnt bad and it has 300hp
300hp + fwd sounds dumb as hell though
How much would it cost to make a 200 mph civic?
More than what it would cost just to buy a factory 200mph car.
A civic , 500$ ls1 swap and an afternoon
>>15285281
I have a 200 mph factory stock civic
Going to lease a new car. These are my top choices, if you had to pick from these four which one would you choose and why?
>c300
>328i
>cts
>is 200t
Also looked at Hyundai Gensis, but ruled it out. Should I have?
>lease
>>15284126
>implying my bf knows how to fix cars
C300 is comfiest
328i is sportiest
lexus might be the cheapest to maintain when the warranty runs out
idk about the caddy
ITT: Unpopular opinions
For me it's wood trim on interiors. Seems like when people buy an old car with wood in it they get it wrapped to cover it, but I love it.
>>15280466
Modern automatic transmissions outperform manual gearboxes in every way.
I have no problem driving a fwd sedan because it stops me from trying to skidddd like a retard
The C7 Z06 is faster than the GTR around Willow Springs in my opinion.
thoughts on the Karnin Kuruma /o/ ?
