Very happy! No mods except for Sumitomo HTR T4's, over-sized to 175/70/14 (inflated to 46psi) compared to the stock 185/60/14's. I can't wait to do some aero mods to her before my next road trip, see what else I can come up with.


Now I just need to fix some issues and see if I can get the city MPG up a little higher than 22mpg
you actually under sized and way overinflated which leads to aggressive tire wear try 195/50r14 @ 35psi but other than that congrats on the awesome mpg
