I misread it, but after more research and talking to a few people, I decide to go with your recommendation Dave. I'm having the Kuhmo Ecsta STP 225.45.17 installed today.I've heard possitive things about the Kuhmos, so I hope they do turn out to be a good choice.

slvrvibes

Dave, thanks for that post. It was very informative and I'm glad to hear someone else with Kuhmo tires likes the tires. They came recommended by a friend, so I got online and did the research on them. I also looked at the 215/45/17 but like you said it would throw off the speedometer more than I wou...

I'm upgrading from the 16" stock on my base vibe to a 17" wheel.I'm going to a little lower profile. The tires I'm getting are 225 45/R17.I was looking at the 215 45R17 but it would change my speedometer reading a little more.You can check discounttire.com and choose your tire and compare ...

slvrvibes

Discount has the best service.Tirerack.com has some of the best prices, but Discount Tire will match competitor pricing for tires they carry. I found tirerack.com had the tires I wanted cheaper than Discount. I printed out the same tire pricing from tirerack and took it to Discount. They matched the...

I haven't seen those at the dealership yet.

I'm upgrading to 17s.Although, I like the look of 18s, I have to stay within a price range I can afford.The Goodyear Eagle RSA are gone. They aren't very good tires to have on a vehicle if you are wanting good traction on wet pavement.Their ratings are not that great compared to other brands.

slvrvibes

better or worse difference?

slvrvibes

I'd like to see:Better rim options.Better tires. Stop using Goodyear Eagle RSA tires. Those are some of the worse tires out there.A better cargo cover.telescoping steering wheel.Compass on rearview mirror.

I'm about to upgrade my factory tires and steel wheels on my '05 base model.I was curious is anyone who has upgraded going from like a 16" to a 17" or 18" has noticed any major changes in the ride comfort?

slvrvibes

I'll try to go, but I won't know for sure until September.

slvrvibes

Congrats on the new car. Welcome aboard.

slvrvibes

Whoa, that is bright. It looks pretty cool though.

slvrvibes

Congrats Zuben!

slvrvibes

I would take it to the dealership and have them check it out.

slvrvibes

That is a cool color.

slvrvibes

Nice ride.

slvrvibes

I have almost 5900 on my base '05 automatic and I get around 27 mpg on a mixture of city and highway driving. The best I've gotten has been 30 mpg. Overall it isn't bad mpg and I'm satisfied with my vibe.

slvrvibes

I by no means think the vibe is a gay. Check out pictures of some of the vibes here, you will find a lot of sweet looking vibes. Some have been pretty pimped out. I think you should check with your local used dealers and see if they have any used models. Good luck on your search.

slvrvibes

Thanks. I installed them back in December.

slvrvibes

I like the 2nd Civic. I hope you are enjoying it.

slvrvibes

Congrats on your purchase Vibe_of_the_thing. It is cool to see another Houstonian on here.Welcome hotlava.

slvrvibes

Nice ride your folks have.

slvrvibes

That is too funny. Poor grandma.

slvrvibes

That is great that you and the vibe are ok. Most deer hits are pretty bad.

slvrvibes

It sort of looks like a mini van. I'm not into that look.Kind of looks like the Chrysler Pacifica.

slvrvibes

Congrats on the new vibe.

slvrvibes

I use mine all the time. Easier to get groceries in.

slvrvibes

Nice ride. I have yet to see a black Vibe with the pinstripe. It is a nice touch.

slvrvibes

You know the bare necessities of life.Flash light, road map, cell phone charger, a couple of screw drivers, my mp3 player accessories oh, and my sunglasses.

slvrvibes

Anyone installed crossbars on their vibe? From what I gather you take of the plastic ends of the roof racks.Tried last night but I was scared I was going to brake them trying to take them off and decided not to do it. Looking for step by step instructions if anyone can provied them.

slvrvibes

3,310 miles - only had 42 miles on it when I bought it back 3 months ago.

slvrvibes

The have a "Vibe" overlay for the third brake light at http://www.grafxwerks.com

slvrvibes

Congrats tnpartsguy!

slvrvibes

I'm getting 27 mpg doing mostly city driving, but I have FWD.

slvrvibes

You think my name gives the color away?

slvrvibes

Not too surprising coming from Ford.

slvrvibes

I'm in.

slvrvibes

Congrats on the new Silver Vibe and welcome. This forum can be very helpful and if you ever are looking for parts/accessories for your vibe this is a great place to check.

slvrvibes

Could you not, slant the plywood to make it fit?

slvrvibes

That is awesome. Gotta love their capabilities.

slvrvibes

The other day, I really tested how much cargo room my Vibe has.We went to the store to continue the Christmas shopping we had started last week and ended up buying two 26 inch men mountain bikes. I was concerned that I may not be able to fit both bicycles in my Vibe but thanks to the back seat foldi...

slvrvibes

fortiffany, I've never seen a Vibe the color of yours. What year is your Vibe?

slvrvibes
