    I've mastered it. You just need to pretend that road laws don't exist and use all 3 of the lanes. I promise this works. Alternately if you just drive on the inner most lane, the one that takes you to the side street, and then jump back onto bayers road after you drive past the abyss, you should come away clean! ;)

    My problem is theres usually traffic when i go in and am stuck to using the far right lane because i turn at the mall. This stock suspension only has to last till the next good day i have off so i can do my lift!

    ahh yes, totally understandable. people are litterally crawling through it in traffic. when i come out of my street I just stay in the third lane a bit longer and then merge onto Bayers. it saves alot of suspension, especially since im trying to sell my current daily driver.

    I'm literally considering driving my Tacoma back to NS next time I go just for the clearance and extra suspension for getting around.

    There is no traffic where I live. 40 min drive to work and no traffic, gotta love it.

    Check out 1010tires.com I have also been pricing tires and it's crazy expensive! I also think canadian tire sells Cooper. Maybe Scotia tire or ok tire might be able to help as well.

    That guy is the shadiest mechanic in the city, just saying. Screwed me over good once about 5 years ago. Literally never went to another mechanic ever again outside of when I needed exhaust fab done or an MVI. I went in for a U joint replacement and came out with an ignition switch that had a key broken off in it, on a Mercedes. Couldn't extract the key, spent 700 extra dollars on the ignition switch. Also quit european cars after this one too, haha.

    Cant speak on that, but he sent me pics of the brand new, still-in-the-box sliders. Pretty hard to get screwed there unless he robs you. haha

    The guy that emailed me back was named Paul, dont know his connection to the shop.
