    I don't rep. Not cause I'm an asshole , or I don't like it. I just forget to!
    If you can blame guns for killing people, I can blame misspelled words on my pencil.
    I'm big enough to have a credit card at chuck-e-cheese, and small enough to fit in the rides!
    hate it on paper, love it in real life!

    No issues, as I said playing devils advocate after thinking about it for a moment I try to look at both sides of the fence, and your rebuttal is exactly what I would have said as well lol
    There's a trick to being whatever you want to be in life.
    It starts with the simple belief that you are what or who you say you are. It starts, like all faiths, with a belief-a belief predicated more on whimsy than reality. And you've gotta believe for everybody else, too - until you can show them proof. If you're lucky, someone starts believing with you - first theoretically, then in practice. And two people believing are the start of a congregation. You build a congregation of believers and eventually you set out to craft a cathedral. Sometimes it's just a church; sometimes it turns out to be a chapel. Folks who don't build churches will try to tell you how you're doing it wrong, even as your steeple breaks the clouds. Never listen.- From TOUGH SHIT

    but rep really without a purpose to congratulate or scold a person, seems kinda useless.

    I'll figure something out. I like a system that rewards people who have something useful to say but it's going to be hard to keep it from being gamed unless I can turn it off in this forum.

    No, you're pretty much right on the money.

    I'm in the same boat. I don't need wheels though, just tires. 42k miles on one set of stock MXM4's from the showroom floor? can't complain. My Si has been a CHAMP since I bought it. Thank you Honda for making reliable cars.

    I'm at just shy of 50k on my original tires. The tread is low but the screw next to the sidewall is making it a pain. I have to top off the tire every morning.

    What year Si do you have?
