you probably have, he's everywhere and I live in the Elgin area so it's a good possibility.

Also, yes, it sucks, I'm just glad the Galant only takes $40 of premium to fill up and only uses 3/4 of a tank per work week.

I freaking hate paying for Premium -___-
takes a little over $40 to fill up for me I think. Luckily I hardly have to drive my car once I'm back at my campus. Save the gas for the fun stuff ;)

Why do you guys use premium?

really? didn't know that

and the I4 was fine with regular

**IVORY_G** · 08-28-2010, 12:27 AM

I used to use 89/Plus fuel, till one day I decided to call and ask my local Mitsubishi dealership what fuel was recommended for my I4? They told me 87 wasnt a good choice but would work, 89 was ok to use, but 91 would be the best choice. Better gas mileage and better engine life in the long run. I did notice better gas mileage, engine ran a lil smoother, and performance seemed a lil better. So Ive stuck with it ever since.

**E_Emerson88** · 08-28-2010, 03:07 AM

i would always use 87, but then switched to 89 and it runs more smooth and a bit more mileage.

I was searching for winter wheels and came across a set of S14 240SX SE wheels for $50. I snagged them, spent another $30 on paint and they look like this now.

At the risk of getting grief for the color choice... I like the color ALOT! Can't wait to get tires on them and put them on the G!

I have to run the spacer for them to fit because they have a smaller hub bore (about 1mm) so the offset ends up at +25. Going to run a 205/55/16 on them. Gotta paint the other pair tomorrow.
