Seriously I got 285/75R16's this time instead of the 295's.
The "E" range don't have white letters.
I have heard that they wear faster than the "D"'s but only time will tell.
Tire's look good and glad to see you got E's with that camper you tow. Every tire has there own wear rating so just because they have an E Load range does not mean they will wear faster.

hit a bad bump. crawled under my EX to see if it was all still there ( it is). Checked the wheels. No sign of coconut fur.

I bought my EX for a number of reasons, ONE of which is I wanted to benefit AMERICAN labor. Noticed that a stamp "made in mexico" appears on many parts. My VIN begins with a "1FMNU".

I have the following questions.

1) If there is coconut fur in my lug nuts, how do I wipe it off ?

2) Is my EX actually an American car ? If so, how much American? Or was it just ASSEMBLED here in the United States out of coconut parts made in mexico ?
