T rated tires

Can I put T rated tires on my 06 vibe awd? Looking at General Evertrek rt's which are cheaper and have a higher mileage rating than the H's. Any recommendations for tires in the $400 range?

window crank clips

So I put in new speakers and in the process of removing the window cranks I lost 3 of the little metal clips. I was doing the cloth method of removing the crank handles. Can I get these anywhere or should I go out and comb my lawn?

Re: Change factory speakers

After researching I think its best to go shallow in the front and regular in the back. All for only about $120 on Ebay.

Re: Change factory speakers

I dont have the moon system so I dont know what the wattage is. Would you recommend maybe the smallest of the polk subwoofers like say the 8 inch or just go without?

Whispbar roof rack

Anybody use these? Are other brands noisier and less fuel efficient? I plan on leaving the racks on whether in use or not.

Would the side rails be in the way of a system that attaches directly to the roof? Would I need a cross bar that attaches to the side rails in the back and the roof in the front? I need that kind of span to carry what I want.

Re: Frontier roof rack (lovemyraffe)

Are they 2 different racks or from the same set? All the ones i see are a set of 2 identical cross bars.
