    Front tire wear, is this normal?

    Just passed the halfway point on my lease, 18 mo in and 22500 miles. Looking to keep maximum range on the replacements... did you try the Firestone Champion Fuel fighters? Any feedback?

    Spark body parts

    Co-worker Ratting on EV charging

    It sounds like you are in SDG&E territory. Have you looked into the EV-TOU2 rate plan? Overnight charging at 0.17 / kWh, and no more than 0.21 / kWh at all times except noon to 6 pm in the summer.

    Spark body parts
