and also consider some fresh image now
+ 18inch tires are cheaper+less tire RPM = better MPG
(well maybe not really right)the BEST i could get out of my coupe now is...
28 mpg MAX
i was expecting some where 32MPG
really well maintain oil change Mobil 1 3months/3000miles wash and wax twice a month
damn...

well i think going 18 would solve my tire shaving issue and rear tire balding fast with the 19'

most of my friend look at my coupe first thought it was a V8 by looking at my rims, then i told them is a I4...
the next thing they thought my coupe must've giving me 40MPG
well thx for the response, i thought i must be getting something wrong with my coupe since i don't think 25 is normal
that making me wonder why SMART ForTwo getting 40MPG max
why can't we get the CDi verison that give us 80MPG 1.0 liter Diesel Engine run quite clean right?

Forget the smart, if we get diesel options, I would have totally picked up a CDI 30 AMG coupe......that thing's a monster.

Great looking Coupe!
Along with the coilovers and the spacers, have you done anything else to the suspension?
How do your tires wear? Did you have to roll your fenders? If so, how was it done?
thanks
