I'm a Michelin Man .... but sometimes you gotta try a different Fleva. The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S is one of the best all around street tires on the market in years. It is quiet, has plenty of grip even for the track and is wonderful in the rain. The close 2nd for me is the Continental ExtremeContact Sport tire. You want a street tire that is able to gap people in wet conditions that Continental tire is it.  Whenever possible those are my 2 go to brands for tires. But with the smaller selection on the market in 15"...

I still appreciate the small wheel and tire combos that we can run on our 1990s Honda's. These 14" and 15" wheel and tire combos offer a great look, lightweight and budget friendly.

I read an interesting article over the weekend that was about modern cars. It discussed how much computer hardware and software integration is in them and how they will become obsolete quicker than older cars.

Using computers for everything in the car leaves it up to the manufacturers to ensure they keep the systems relevant, the hardware available and the software updatable. But if the patterns of other technology companies (let's think Apple and their i-Products) are any indication they are more incentivized to let the technology of...
