They suck on powder, though you may fair better with an STI. I did it with my FWD turbos.
BTW, how much you get them for?

^ Don't quite remember the price but The Speed Syndicate sourced the tires for me. Less hastle in my opinion.
Picked up my exhaust yesterday for the STI and got it installed at The Speed Syndicate. |

Thanks for the heads up!
So far they're holding up pretty well actually, no complaints yet! I've driven to cypress and whistler with no issues so far and in and around the city in the rain zero issues. Could be the AWD or I just drive very slow... or the tires are still very new |

Even with a LSD it's like driving with a pair of hockey skates on the car.

Interface layout is a bit of a change and the loading times aren't as brutal. Having outdated maps on the navi was bothering me so I decided to update my unit.

Bought a bunch of LED's and some yellow fog light bulbs to rice out my daily. Also bought new Teflon window guides for my Miata that badly needed replacing. Handle would nearly snap off every time I'd try to crank it up or down lol

@ASR
Haven't bought the wheel yet... Not entirely sure what I want. Quote:

It's this one here; WB Toshiki Yoshioka QR
Although I got a bit of a discount. Not quite sure I could justify the price otherwise.
