debburyl, i totally agree with u but my goal for this car is economy. I could have bought a nicer car for around the same money it would cost to upgrade the mirage. The mirage is supposed to pay back with low maintenance costs and great fuel mileage. I'm really happy with my mirage now that the body roll is gone. Going the route of better wheels and tires will almost surely hurt fuel economy. I'm just going to go slowly and make one change at a time until i get the most out of my mirage. This car was supposed to be for my wife. Somehow I'm driving it all the time now. I'm at the point where I don't care how my car looks to other people. It's at the gas station I'm showing off.
