Yeah, for daily commuting I have whatever Advance Auto's premium ceramic pads are, and they're fine. Do yourself a favor, and if you research online or ask someone at the store, just tell them you...

I agree with his picks, and I'm sure we could all come up with a few more. I feel like the common thread here is that all of these cars are cars that auto enthusiasts understand to be great cars, but...

As everyone else has said, your car will run fine, but I'd replace it to protect all the components under your car from road gunk and also any potential damage. You never know when you're gonna be...

I had SO4s as my last set and I really liked them. Dry traction was great, wet traction was very good too. Even when they definitely needed to be replaced, the dry grip was still impressive.

I think crossovers are too young to be all over the road yet like SUVs were like, ten years ago after they exploded in the 90s. I'm under the impression current buying trends are like, 99%...

I can understand the "business case" argument, but isn't there a business argument for generating brand excitement? 98% of Nissan customers can't afford a GTR, and after that the next most "sporty"...

Definitely invest in some snow tires if you can, or at least get some all seasons if you can't do that. I drove through a winter on summer tires (very conservatively) because I couldn't do otherwise....

Yeah, I definitely wasn't pushing the car as hard as I could, since I do have to drive it to and from work every day. Only ran it up to about 7k, no redlining. I also don't have very aggressive tires...

Has anyone used the ZSpeed one with an oil cooler? Is it still easy to access the filter/hoses? (Is the oil change opening big enough?)

As for the tread...
