I know about the Bonne/DTS spare, I was just wondering if it would clear the rear brakes, because I'd move the rear to the front, since you never run a donut as a drive wheel.

And, yeah, a cheap compressor and goo, that leaks all over your trunk. :/

3.19 for Texaco with Techron, "no ethanol" My average is at 21 right now, surprisingly, was 18 last tank, typically ~25.

It's because I have DoD disabled. I was getting much better with it, but I don't care.
