I'm looking forward to driving it in about 33 days I'm sure he'll chime in soon to talk about it.

Loving it. Getting closer to a wheel purchase for it to ditch the 19" wheels and drop down to an 18" to get a little more sidewall. Have gotten upwards of 29.8mpg and as low as 25.4mpg when I ran in N mode all day running the Dragon and Skyway. Autocrossed it once and finished 6th overall behind 3 Corvettes, 1 RS Focus, and 1 STi and all of those where on RE71R race tires while I was still on stock Pirellis.

Probably but you have to get things called winter tires. I hear those are a thing but they dont really apply when we have 5 days below freezing here.

Yes, I do need the winter tires, Blizzak WS90's is what I'll be going with and wrapping my stock rims with them. My recent rotation showed 9/32nds on 2 of the tires and 8/32nds on the other 2, so I'll be riding those out...but, getting new rims, a little more width (+.5") and offset (+5mm) so should help a tad in the handling department.

It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Re: Racing Red Veloster N
their pick at 14:22 (not to mention the Veloster N has been getting favorable reviews all across the board, not just with these guys). just goes to show you that you can't under estimate the underdog. the Veloster N hasn't been around nearly as long as it's rivals/competition and are right up there and i'm sure they will continue to move up and beyond. i'm curious on what Tyrone Johnson's input is going to be like when he takes over and gets his hands on the Veloster N and so forth with other vehicles...

Just curious.... what are you looking to gain by downsizing to 18 and getting more sidewall?
