For 2010,

I have a 2009 Hyundai Accent with 5 speet MT. Just did Grill block and Blocked 1/2 of lower grill. Seat ofpants feel is coasting further - waiting for next fill-up to confirm any mileage changes. Next purchase will be Moon Hub Caps - perhaps next month. One thing I dont like about Accent 5 speed manual is the gearing - way way to short - 70 mph is around3600 rpm. Am considering switching to higher profile tires from 185/65 R 14 to 185/75 R 14. This should drop rpms by about 6% but am little concerned about increase in ride height and effect on CDA. If go with this am wondering if could still use Eibach lowering springs.....drop by about 1.2 inches
