That looks REALLY good! Is it on OEM shocks? I remember having ZIEX 512's on my old car and they were nice tires. They didn't last too long, but they were very nice.

Know if using LED DRL's would avoid having the hazing happen?

To my surprise I found it on Amazon Japan. About $30 shipped and had it within a week.
It was a tight fit. It's not ever coming out.

Yep it's still on OEM shocks/struts. They're pretty good tires. Not really noisy at all compared to the shit firestones. I really need to get some aftermarket struts/shocks, the spring rate doesn't match oem dampening, it's still too soft for my preference.

I put K&N permanent filters in ours. Occasionally, when I check them, I see mouse droppings and chewed up acorns. : (

on the Toyota corolla I had before the Fit. I pulled out the cabin filter, and a mouse built a good sized nest on top of the filter. Made it into the car through the return vent under the seats, and chewed its way into the center console, thankfully it didn't chew any wires.
