14" tires

[David Pertuz]

Indeed! I am sort of amazed that I have had my car for almost 24 years now.

I was nearly rear-ended at a stop sign the last time I drove my SE-R (by,
as expected, a young dude who wasn't paying attention because he was gazing
into his phone or whatever). If that had happened it would have obviously
totalled the car and, I would have been very sad for it, but would have
eventually gotten over it. Then I would have been able to immediately start
seriously shopping for a non-boring replacement for my boring appliance
car. but I just can't bear to get rid of the SE-R!
