    Clearly you have lost your man card.

    Learn to change a tyre and then you may re-apply for it.

    Regardless, obviously Minis are not too fly with the gals. *sigh*

    Just as a control question, what do you girls think of one of these:

    You get a jack, put the end up, take the bolts off, pull tire off, put new tire on, put bolts back in, lower jack, go? or did i miss something

    When putting the bolts back on you have to put them on a star pattern to make sure the tyre is balanced properly, but basically you have the idea.

    i think this is the most difficult part of it. I bet most drivers don't know where the right place is

    seems easier than changing the tires on a bike:

    1. flip it over
    2. unbolt axle
    3. loosen brake caliper
    4. take wheel out
    5. deflate tube
    6. take old tire off, put new tire on
    7. reinflate
    8. put wheel back in
    9. tighten axle
    10. readjust brake caliper

    #4,8 & 10 are such bitches to do...

    ... there are usually clearly marked jack points on the bottom of the car.. most new cars anyways.

    You can just feel around for the big wide strip of steel that obviously serves no purpose but to support a jack. :p

    Eh, I just Zipcar it these days if I really want to use a car to get shit done. The Mazda 3 I drove last time was pretty spiffy. Nice acceleration, too. :D

    He has HID's as well :)
    No windows tinted... I don't really dig the tinted look.
    It's black too, who has a blue integra? I've never seen a blue one every anywhere!
