Well after months of searching, I finally picked up my S last night. Its not easy finding the right car. Its an 04 with 41,000 miles. I've been on S2ki learning as much about the car as possible the last months. I do have a few questions:
1. What tires are you running? I'm not sure if I should get the OEM bridgestones or not. The tire shop recommended Falken Ziex.
2. I read on the forums about a part of the electric top that rubs on the fabric of the top. I believe that it was recommended to put felt over this plastic part. Where is this part located?
3. I want buy a car cover, which brand do you recommend?

I've wanted a Rio Yellow S2000 for two years now, and after working hard its nice to finally have one.

hey dude congrats,
1-try Yokohama, a lot uses them.
2-didn't find the thread, but it was on the passenger side.
3-if your keeping it stock or might add OEM spoiler & lip i guess you should get the OEM S2000 cover from Honda.

nice car

Congrats! It looks awesome man. I agree an OEM front lip and an OEM spoiler would set it off.

Thanks everyone.
I like the look of the lip, but I'm afraid its going to make the car easier to scrap. I'll do more research on the tires.
