there might be one closer, that's just the closest one I know I've been to.

And I thought I had it bad because the closest ones (4 of them) are 3-4 miles away. It just sucks that there's a couple starbucks within walking distance --tims is just so much more

Technically this happened yesterday, but I finally got a damned radio in my car again. I buggered up the one I had installed whilst removing it (don't ask me how no physical damage or anything). So I had to switch the changer over the the radio I bought from Kraziefox, but being that it was pretty beaten up (Thanks a lot UPS... Jackasses), I had to take the front off my old radio and reattatch it to the new one. Once done, all plugged in and working... with the changer. Now I just need to wash and detail it.

I had never seen a Tim Hortons until heading up to Rochester and then to Canada a couple months ago. Awesome place, I would go there all the time if it was around here.

dirty dirty car, but i finally replaced the little universal cubby for under my radio, I had broken all 4 of the face tabs and so it rattled like crazy even with superglue...though while attaching the new face to the cubby one of the tabs on that it broke!! but as long as I dont have to remove my radio anymore the other 3 should keep it from rattling.
I would wash it this weekend but next week is supposed to be rainy, and Im gonna be putting about 500miles on the car anyways.

Thanks! Wheels are off of a 2005 Tribute and are 16x7 with a 45 offset and no spacers. Tires are Kumho Ecsta AST 205/50/16 and I am still at stock height.

When I first got the wheels I wasn't sure how they would look given the offset but once I got them mounted, I was like 'damn, they look good'!

Nice. I'm running 16x7+40 with Ziex 205/50s and they rub (even with rolled fenders) and they look lame (stretched). Yours turned out really well! Although a mild ride height reduction would ice your cake... =P
