I finally got around to washing the 2 cars today. I drive the accord and the wife and kids get around in the pilot. I also got a new set of Falken ZE-912's from discounttiredirect last week for $215 shipped (unbelievable price IMO) for the set which I got put on today as you can see in the last picture.

Looks good. And you didn't forget the wheels and tires either.:thmsup:

Regarding the Falkens.... seems like you took advantage of the $100 off a set of 4 tires sale.

Wheels and tires are the most important. A slighty dirty car with clean wheels and tires still looks clean to me. If I dont have time to wash the car, Ill just dry wipe the rims and tires and then shine the tires and I should be good for another week.

Regarding the Falkens, you are exactly right. I wasnt even in the market for tires since the Michelins still had some life in them, but who could pass up the deal they were offering!!

Good for you! It makes you feel good to have both cleaned up and spiffy doesn't it?

I definately does. I'm sure it will rain on Monday on my way to work, so I probably wont get to enjoy it for too long. Since the Accrod is fairly new to me (2 months) I try and wash it atleast every other weekend.

You sound like my neighbors. Whenever I am washing the cars they always remind me that a clean car brings rain. And here in TX, they are ALWAYS right. And if there isnt rain, there is always dust and dirt from road construction.
