The front one is for the CAI and the rear is for the afterburner. Unfortunately when I deploy the afterburner it's off to one side so it creates a little over steer in the corners.

I think I know your problem. You are only allowed to rotate front to back. I bet you also rotated side to side. We have unidirectional tires, you know! Geez, man! Get with the program!

Actually I put the mini-spare on the front-left. Took that one to the right-rear. Took right-rear to right-front, then took right-front to left-rear. I then bolted the new full-sized spare onto the extrerior of the trunk ala CRV. Like I said, rides a little rough. Can't figure it out.

I, too, am perplexed. Can't see what you could have possibly done wrong.

A bit off topic, but often are you guys changing tires? My rear last about 9kmi, my fronts close to 15kmi. Is that hella high tire wear or average?

I just know I spent hella money on those damn S-02's! I've changed rears 4 times and fronts 3 times already!

You are pretty close to average.

Alex, this car was designed and marketed for FUN! You are obviously having a LOT of fun with yours and buying tires is just part of the equation. Nothing wrong with that. However, I hope to get twice what you're experiencing but then, I only have "that" level of fun when I have fresh batteries in my pacemaker.
