Meh, I understand. Some people don't like any/all of their info out there for anyone to see. Part of the reason why I don't have FB or anything like that.

Plus I saw Identity Thief, I don't want some big white girl posing as me

It is what you make it. You can live life in fear of what "could" happen or enjoy life and deal with problems as they show themselves. The key is to always be aware and question everything.

Perdido Key/ Orange beach/ Gulf shores area. Sometime after May 21.

What the hell?! I just got a call from the local Acura dealer asking if I want to set up an appointment for service.

I know I'm at 20% oil life, but are dealers psychic now too?!

Anyone else have spacers on their car to widen the stance a little? I suddenly hate how my stock type-S wheels in inward and the wheel arch from the fenders in about 1/2 to 3/4's of an inch outwards from the tops of the wheels. I'm not lowered (but want to be), but I think 15-20 mm spacers would help move the wheels outward.

gatrhumpy, 15 up front and 20 in rear are the norm around here. i ran 20 up front and 25 rear on my type-s wheels but i also had a little neg camber and fenders rolled so i was able to squeeze in a few more mm's.

I ran 10mm and 15mm front and rear respectively on my type s waffles with 235-45-17's and had to have the fenders rolled. But im running stock camber all around too. Just to give you an idea.

You can go with bigger spacers or no rolling with more negative camber

You're lowered, I'm not (yet at least). Lowest I would go is 1 inch lower, maybe only 0.75 inches lower.

I like spacers...I think they serve a pretty good purpose. I don't lose traction often enough to feel the need for the extra weight of a chunkier tire.

then again, I don't run into trees and such.

That is the truth! Definitely prefer the spacers. The 20s are 10.5 width and i always feel like I am going to die. Especially if you have a heavy foot.
