Thumbs up Whoa!!!

Some might know some might not, but I just traded in my 03 Evo for a 03 Touring on Tuesday night. Well I had to work Wednesday a 13hrs shift and today a 12 hrs shift. So I really hadn't look and played with just everything yet. Well I was showing one of my friends and she said that my wheels look big. And I told her that a lot of ppl that looked at it while I was at work said the same. She asked me what size they were and I told her that I hadnn't really looked but I think they are 17's. Too my surprize when I looked at the tires size and saw 18's. I just never really paid that much attention to the wheel size when I bought the car. So not alone does the Z have a ton more features than the Evo it has larger wheels as well. I think I made a great chioce by switching over to the Z. What a couple .xx seconds anyhow. The Z is mucher sexier than the Evo and well... Sex is better than anything.

Thanks Neo. Looking for winter/snow tires now. As well as a cheap little beater so I won't have to drive it in winter.
