    Well I picked up my new 05 LX-G 4 cyl 5 speed manual, Graphite Pearle
    yesterday, so now I have to carefully break the engine in. I had a hitch
    installed on it today. In the manual it says to wait until the car has
    atleast 1000km (600miles) before towing. Why is this? or can I tow
    anyways?

    2nd question? I've heard some pople say that I should not wash the fresh
    paint for one month? I want to wax my new baby as soon as possible. I am
    using Simonize 100 Canuba liquid wax.


    3rd question? Should I change the OEM tires that came with the car?
    Micheline MX4 Energy P195/65R15 92H I've read that those tires are not
    worth much?



    Thank you;

    Rick

  2. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations. They make such
    recommendations for a reason.

    You could also be going down the road at 80mph and suddenly cut the
    wheel as far left as you can; really, there's no reason not to.

    Your first 2 concerns are easy enough to satisfy passively so why donthcha?
    Try the OEM tires for a while, I don't think many people come close to the
    limit of any tire and people who complain about wet weather handling, they
    must be driving unsuitably for the conditions because I never felt "unsafe"
    with proper driving matched to the conditions.
