Jan. 18, 2009 - 26,532 miles



Found another nail in one of the rear tires...


Front - Yokohama ADVAN A048 (195/50R16)
- Believe or not, at 26,532 miles, I'm still on my factory original first set with some tread left... (even after one track day at Cal. Speedway)

Rear - Yokohama ADVAN A048 (225/45R17)
- replaced @ around 12,000mi (nail in tire and wear) by Newport European
- replaced @ around 17,000mi (nails in both tires) by Lotus Beverly Hills



To-Do List
1. All four (4) tires need to be replaced. The question is, do I go with Yokohama ADVAN A048 or something else? (I'm thinking Toyo Proxes T1R after reading some good stuff about them. Your thoughts?)



2. Both rear brake pads needs to be replaced -- OEM Brembo or Pagid???



3. Oil change! (I never wait for the factory-recommended 7.5k miles... usually get one around 5k miles.)



In terms of the P0420 MIL/CEL issue, I erased the code with the computer a couple of times and they are not coming back on....
