Re: FS - Cosmo Racing SRI - Ontario, CA

Will it fit a '09 Vibe base with a 2.4l automatic and is it CARB-approved? I'm in the Long Beach area.

Re: I need new tires (lannvouivre)

I just got the Michelin Primacy MXV4 (205/55-16) for the Vibe and wow, what a difference. It's very quiet and smooth. I used to have General Tire Altimax hp and they were okay but the Michelin's are most excellent. I got 16" Konig Incident rims also.

Re: Set of 2009 vibe Rims 17" with good years rsa tires and TPMS (valorfoolish)

What's the bolt pattern? I have a 2.4L Base and I'm looking for 17's. How much tread is left on the tires and are you including shipping? I'm in the LA/LB area, You got pics of the other rims?

Re: FS: TRD/M-theory 17's with tires (thebarber)

Will they fit on a '09 Vibe base model with the 2.4 L engine and what brand/style are the tires? I might be interested if the shipping charges aren't too high for southern calif.

I am a sheet metal worker and work for a great small mechanical contractor called PROAIR installing hvac systems in Southern Calif. My second job doesn't pay anything but is just as gratifying is being Assistant Scoutmaster and Merit Badge Counselor for Boy Scout troop 67, my oldest son's troop.

Re: (frankiemenz)

I purchased one from the local Honda Dealer in Cerritos from their e-store and it was $13.44 out the door.I got the model with the swirl in it. It fit perfectly as if it was made OEM for the Vibe. I noticed the reception improved some but that's here in the L.A. basin.

I'll try to be there. Which garage, the new one along the 57 or the other on the southwest corner. And what have you heard about the rain we're expecting?

Re: XM discount (09vGT)

Thanks. I had just cancelled XM on the Vibe and today I got an e-mail for 12 months for $77.00. Called them up and asked how $65 for the months. They came back with $70 for twelve months and we had a deal. My girls got jazzed when they found out they get to listen to Radio Disney again.

Re: New member, first Vibe (ponta2147)

Sorry for the delayed response. I caught some type of flu bug( i had my flu shot in Oct.) that laid me up for a couple of weeks. I tried getting some pictures of my Vibe on the site but I am having no luck. Maybe my brain hasn't caught up yet. I'll keep trying. Thanks for the advice on the 17's.

Re: New member, first Vibe (tpollauf)

It had 36,322 miles on it. I requested that all the filters in the engine bay be changed to complete the purchase. On the inspection report they were between 65-71% of new.

Spoiler installation

I have a '09 vibe, base model and looking to put the vibe gt spoiler on the back. Is it hard or simple ? My local dealer charges one hour labor to install it. The cheapest I've found on the internet is $214.00 from a Chevrolet dealer in Texas.
