zukered has a spectacular aura aboutzukered has a spectacular aura about
Ottawa Valley, actually, looking from the one of the lookouts in the Gatineau Hills. But after looking up Annapolis Valley, NS, I can see the resemblance!

Are there any downsides to using a slightly bigger tire (175/65x15), aside from making the speed- and odometer go off slightly (goes 8 cm more per revolution)? It's got a bigger diameter than even the Sport's wheels.

BTW, I calculated the diameter thusly:

(height of tire section) x 2 + tire diameter
(175 mm x .65) x 2 + 15 in. x 25.4 mm/in. = 608.5 mm
