Insurance hasn't taken care of anything yet... We're actually supposed to hear from the estimator about both cars today.

In the unlikely event her car is repaired, we will simply sell it.

Once again, Their All-Purpose Cleaner works great for cleaning before treating. But any decent APC should work just fine

Just note that a little goes a looooooooooong way. Too much will sling off the tires. A dollop the size of a pea should easily take care of a tire or two.

It will pretty much be immediately driven to Carmax and sold.

I don't even think she will sit in it.

if the offset is correct yes.

but if i was going to do it, i would lower it and go another 0.5" wider on the wheel width or 10mm outward on the offset.

do they sell swifts for the 6? id go that route after your baby's neck is nice and steady (strong enough).
