Thanks!

My primary concern is my safety in the winter since I can't even get cell phone coverage for half my winter driving (really in the middle of nowhere...). Someone told me the 15" would be a little better for that then that 16" rims and I like the stock rim look for the summer so I'm going t...

Time to buy my first set of winter tires. I'm in Ottawa, Canada and will be driving into the middle of nowhere in Ontario frequently. That means I need decent tires since the stock Vibe 16" ones I have are crap in the snow.I've noticed a number of people going for 195/65R15 tires on 15" wh...

I've got the Belkin generic FM transmitter (just has a standard 1/8 plug on it so plugs into and MP3/CD/etc. player). I find it ok but I don't particularily like FM quality from my MP3s so I'll eventually get a direct input for my head unit (or buy a new head unit).

got 115k km on it so warrenty is ended. I should double check but I think that warrenties go to 100k km on it.

I've got a couple of small (1cm in diameter - see attached pic) rust spots on my Vibe that were caused by rocks hitting the paint, chipping it and not being repaired. They were there when I bought my car a month ago. Does anyone have any tips for removing/repairing them? I have a bottle of touch up ...

I like the look of this one:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=22215however I'm not sure if it has aux-input on it or not.

I'd like to get an idea of what various head units look like in the Vibe as I want to get MP3 support in my '04 Vibe and I'm not sure whether to get a whole new head unit or get the external AUX in for my MP3 player. I'd like MP3 CD support (which would require a new head unit) but I definatly requi...

what model is that and where'd you get it? I like the look of that one and I"m looking at options for adding MP3 CD support and and AUX in.

sweet! that was an easy find... Q's away....

sweet, thanks. I'm going to have to take a look at that.

I bought a pair of reflex blades today from Cdn Tire and after 10mins fighting the driver's wiper to get it on I was quite happy that the drivers wiper now is so low profile that you almost don't see it when it's off. That's grrat but now the passenger-side wiper really sticks out as it's still pret...

So I'm parking my Vibe at work Fri (don't usually drive to work but Fri was an exception) and there were very few spots available by the time I got there at ~11. So I find a spot and realize that there another blue Vibe right beside me. I took a good look at it and noticed a 'genvibe.com' sticker/de...

Quote, originally posted by Sunny » I have a set of 15" rims with Dunlop Graspic snow tires with 7/32 tread left. I'm selling them for $200.00 delivered to your door.Thanks, that sounds like a good deal but I realized I have no storage place for tires until I move into my new place in the fall...

Fast Eddie: where'd you get the Rain Away stuff?

Thanks, I found out there's already 16's on my Vibe but I'll have to buy winter wheels in the Fall and I might change the tires on these ones for ones w better grip.Any suggestions for good grip all weather tires that are not overly expensive?Are there usually winter tre sales in the Spring (or abou...

Showing how much I actually know about this stuff... I drive a friend to work yesterday and he lactually LOOKED at the wheels and apparently I already have 16's on there. doh! I'm not 100% sure where I got the idea they were 17's but no biggie, they are what I wanted. I guess it's the suspention tha...

aside from Canadian Tire, where do people go to buy winter wheel (tire+rim) packages?who has a good selection of 16" rims? I don't want anything expensive, I just don't like hubcaps. (I'll also need wheels as I'm replacing the 17" wheels on the used Vibe I just bought)

Well I definatly notice the roads in Ottawa seem bumpier/rougher in my new Vibe then in the rental cars I used to frequent. A friend at the office thinks I will notice a difference on 16" rims (obviously with a larger sidewall) so I'm trying to guage whether it's worth the eBay hastle to try to...

I'm not really a performance guy and would rather have a smoother ride so I'm thinking of switching from the 17" (brand new, Anyone know approx how much those 17" would be worth on eBay or locally?

Thanks, another friend pointed that site out too.Now I just have to see what the local prices on this beauty are http://www.crutchfield.com/S-z...L#Tab

Thanks, I just signed the papers today for it .Now I have to figure out an economical way of getting an AUX input and decide whether to sell the 17" wheels.

I'm not sure which forum to post to so sorry for the cross-post. I'm looking at buying a 2004 Vibe that has 115,000 km on it. It got a clean bill of health from a mechanic in the 1/2 hour inspection I got but does anyone have any experience with maintenance requirments for the Vibe after 100,000 km ...
