Or it's future. I'm going to guess that Metro has seen some miles, and has been cared for accordingly.

Took the Mirage on it's first longer trip today and drove about 90 miles on 55 mph roads and got around 50 MPG

I think we might get an early spring, so went ahead and swapped out the wheels to some 15 x 6 1/2" running Toyo Extensa P195/50R15 tires...............
In order to do the swap correctly I had to order 4 special valve stems so I could swap over the TPMS sensors.......

Well, seem to be having an issue with the rear tires hitting somewhere when going over hard bumps. The tire is not contacting the fender so it must be hitting on the inner wheel well somewhere. Wifey was not happy when it happened even though it only happened twice on the same dip in the road a couple miles from home. I am going to try and pinpoint where it's hitting, but regardless. this rim/tire combo might have to come off.
