Wasn't successful in pasting the pic so here's the link: www.scautosport.com. Go to the photo gallery and click Acura installs, you'll see the black beauty on the upper right. BTW - WHAT'S THE CORRECT TIRE PRESSURE?

Call someone at Nitto's engineering department tomorrow. I found an engineer at Toyo to give me the recommended pressures for my Toyos in the 235/45-17 and run mine at "track" (and high speed) pressures -- 39PSI. Some of the other folks run 32-36PSI.

Call your tire dealer and ask twice. If they don't sound like they are trying too hard, look up the Nitto phone number.

Here is the link to their info page:

http://www.nittotire.com/mainframe.asp

Here is there address, call info for their phone number:

Nitto Tire N. America Inc.
10805 Holder St.
Suite 175
Cypress, CA 90030
</font>


BTW -- on the www.nittotire.com/mainframe.asp page, you will find a "dealer locator" "tab" for finding a dealer local to you. Call a few, and make sure you get the right pressure for your driving application.

Yeaah. Can't believe I almost sold that beauty-and for a truck! Thank God I didn't, I would have regretted that...
