Olga tried on her friend's shoes this past Tuesday. I think I'm in looooooooove!
17x7.5" ET45 Enkei NT03+Ms wrapped in 215/45/17 Federal 595RS-RR tires. Thanks a million, Steve!

I found the 215/45/17 Federal 595RS-RR tires offered a smoother ride than my 205/50/16 Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s.

Lol I actually took them off the car. I want to powder coat them and problly do some 215’s or 225’s idk yet. I want to get the coilovers and dial all that in before I jump the gun and buy tires.

Thanks!
Whatever you say, boss. I forgot you were riding along in the car with my friend and I after we mounted his wheels on my car.

Yep. Long story short, I settled big time when I bought this car.
I've wanted an S2000 for the past 5 years or so and I really regret not going with one instead of the Fit.
I thought if I modified the Fit, I wouldn't feel as bad about it, but that didn't turn out to be the case.

I like the saying of buy once, cry once. When you settle you always think how much better life would have been if I just got that thing I really wanted instead. Life's too short to let that stuff get in the way (so long as your other priorities/needs are met of course).

I'm gonna be selfish and say, its gonna suck to lose ya. all I ask is, pop in every now and then to chat and throw down some knowledge (which you have tons of)
back on topic, I still think you should keep both. the s2k as the "fun car" and the fit as your mega reliable dd that you're gonna beat on for the next 10 yrs. you live in so cal, there are just some days (or sketchy places) where you cant take out the s2k. also too, having a beater keeps the mileage low on that s2k =)

No need to justify buddy, I completely understand . If you can afford it, go for it. I feel too tall for the S2000. My buddy sold his crazy fast modded Evo X a few years ago for an S2000 CR and loves it.
I’m sure dailying is doable as mike410b (awesome S2K btw!) said. Although, I have an FRS/86 for the summer, and it’s a ton of fun switching between the two cars.

They're appreciating in value significantly.
