They are about 60 less than the two Toyos and so I figured I would give them a try.

I originally was going to use the black but have changed my mind to the chrome ones. I never thought that I would have liked the chrome but it looks far better than the black. (IMO)

Hey man, was curious if you'd spotted my question about the manual steering! Definitely been considering it, and I'm trying to get all the feedback I can on it.

I have yet to drive it with the manual steering....... Hopefully in a month or so. It's a direct swap from a mazda 323..... the mx-3 tie rods are .5in longer tho.

Ahh alright, I'll anxiously await your feedback then :P I love the idea of manual steering for many reasons...

Totally heartbroken to see this... It's always a shame. :( When I'm locked into a location for 2+ years, I'll buy a parts car, or 2...
