GTX!

Just put my winter wheels/tires on and went with no wheel covers.

I have Primewells on my beater Subaru. And to be honest they are as good (tread wear, noise, all season traction) as all the other tires I've had on that car and currently at 30k miles. Expect 50to 60k total life, assuming I have the car that long. Previous were the OEM Bridgestone, Kelly...

To add to the fun, I have a car with directional tires. My wife took it in to get a slow leak fixed and they mounted it backwards on the rim. Now I have 3 tires with "rotation arrow" pointing forward (as it should) and one pointed backward.

I just got a 1.0L Ecoboost, only 300 miles total so far. I'm thinking 5,000miles for first change. What oil/filter did you put in it?

The oil is just the regular SuperTech. I've used SuperTech in ~90% of the oil changes on this car at around 5k miles.

First time I've done an oil analysis. Mostly curious about how my engine is wearing and not so much on extending oil change intervals at this point. Any comments appreciated. Thanks Code: OIL SuperTech 5W30 MILES IN USE 4.6k MILES 185k SAMPLE...
