Talking New Tires, New Pics - 1990 CRX Si

Just installed these Bridgestone Potenza RE-11A on my 1990 CRX Si, August 26 2013.
My 7 year old Bridgestone RE01R were worn down to the belts so it was time to change the tires. These tires are Made in Japan, treadwear rating of 200.
These tires were manufactured 14th week in 2013.
I also got the CRX corner weighed, and did an alignment.
Some pics an a video:

Well, it was owned by a meticulous teacher who only used it in Summers. He is/was a teacher in Scotland and came back to Canada in the summertime.
He got married in 2006 so the car had to go.
I also contacted the 1st owner (who kept it 3 years) and he sent me the original bill of sale ! The CRX hasnt seen a winter since 1993, thats why there's 0 rust issues, except the sunroof has some bubbling starting which is typical.

Do you drive it at all in the winter? That's crazy nice, it has to be the cleanest CRX I have ever seen! How long have you owned it?

If you don't own a detail shop, you missed your calling in life!


***sorry, I see you answered my questions already - I never got past the pics!
