I guess if you want to run a weird size tire for 14" wheels then sure. But there is a great selection in winter tires for 15" wheels.

factory weaves.

There is a nice gray set on CL for $200. That's the cheapest so far, and I bet you can get weaves for less than that.

There's something to be said for looks...

I realize it's blastphamy, but I hate the look of weaves. I think the TR look slightly better, but driving on 270 every day might warrant a stronger wheel. The A/S Dunlops I have are pretty dam good in the wet and what snow I've driven on, but I want dedicated studded snows for the heaving stuff.

Not if it costs money or isn't Style 5s.

winter tires for 14"s are cheaper.

So I swapped my 76C thermostat for an 80C one. At idle it holds at 1/2. On the highway its only a needle's width above the 1/4 mark on the temp gauge. Any suggestions for getting higher operating temps?

I was thinking about removing my IS lip w/ splitter for winter and replacing with either an i lip or dare I say a Volvo lip. Thoughts?

Was also thinking black 15" TR Motorsport rims w/ studded snows from Tire Source. They are dirt cheap. Anyone use them before?

Also my garage door ripped my antenna off. Was thinking Z3 mod. Anyone done this?

Did you come across a Ti??.. I have a Volvo and mk2 lip if you want to buy either one??

I was telling Alex that I had come across so many Ti's and never crossed my mind to get the antennas..... lame

What's a mk2 lip?

I couldn't find the Ti. I think it was long gone. I used a Jetta antenna. It's exactly like the M Coupe one. A Z3 would have been better suited as it is made for the trunk. Less angled. I got the electric antenna OEM to extend and retract almost all of the way, but decided to go with the Jetta one for now.
