    245/40/18's will it fit!

    I am at stock height. It rubbed the inner fender on the rear enought to wear off the paint and stock under coating. My tires do have a rim protector which makes the tire a tad wider. I only rub like that on the drivers side and I am sure my 220 pound fat ass does not help. I can't remember the...

    Just got my license back after 3 months suspension!

    I had a similar experience in Mexico. I just watched a movie with friends in Mexico and I was driving back to my hotel that was in Texas. Just before I get to the US there is a bad section of town with prostitution and drugs which I drive near. I was driving down the street and I saw the cop...

    Beijing, China

    If you think Beijing is dirty don't go to Baltimore, New York, Manila, or Bangkok. They were much dirtier then Beijing. What section should I have posted it in? I must have missed the other section.

    Beijing, China

    I figured I would show everyone my pictures from my vacation in Beijing. I spent 7 days in Beijing and got to see many beautiful places. If you have a chance to go don't pass it up. Beijing is the cleanest city I have ever been in and is huge. http://paultrautnerbeijingchina2009.shutterfly.com/

    what would u do 4 long commute

    I drive around 100 miles a day and in the next few months I am looking to get rid of the MS3. I was thinking the MS3 would have been a good DD driver because the gas mileage was not bad and it was sporty and fun to drive. I replaced the stock tires with-in the first 500 miles on the car for a...

    Mexico Starts Selling Speed3s!

    Right now there is a lot of bad in Reynosa, lots of military and gun fighting. I have only been to Reynosa and Progresso and both had very bad streets. The speed bumps would be the worse for the MS3, I always dragged my rental G6

    Mexico Starts Selling Speed3s!

    What area are you from? I have spent about 5 months in Reynosa, Tamaulipas and with all the pot holes and speed bumps the MS3 would be the last car I would want to drive.
