    gonna pick up my car tommorrow afternoon
    ill get picks when i do
    im getting a lojack installed and they sold me on that protection package it sounded good
    they would cover stains small rips or holes in seat and they put some kind of "wax" on the car where it keeps the shine for 5 years and then they reapply it

    i was wondering are the tires that come with the car any good ?
    i was thinking of getting some nice set of tires i got the reg 16 inch rims
    what would you guys reccomend
    and how should i break the car in
    i was reading somehere here that you should keep it under 4k rpm for 1k miles

    You read correctly. Keep it under 4k for the first 1000 miles. The stock tires are crap, and 9 out of 10 people will say the first mod is a good set of tires.

    What you buy depends on what you want out of it. Good street performance, Auto-x use, or just a good set for a good price.

    Do you plan on buying larger rims?

    Congrats and welcome to the club.

    yea as soon as I bought the car (friday) I already realized I need some new wheels and tires. coming from a Z with 8.5 rims and 255 tires, 6.5 and 205 is pretty small.
