Probably the same guy that used a Phillips to secure the stock ebrake handle instead of a torx

Default I HATE THEM ALL!

Look, we don't use the metric system.. that's ok, I don't have a problem buying a WHOLE other set of tools for my car. I mean, I know the imperial system of measurement is WAY behind in the times and I'm happy to use metric.. so no biggie, no love lost. So if you're gonna make a car with all metric stuff... and make a product for that car.. then MAKE THE DAMN THING METRIC!

True. It looks like a 2.5mm, but don't be fooled. ;-)

Default But WHO decided to sell the world on sizing tires in both metric AND standard?

225 is mm of width
40 is the % of the width to the tire height
18 is the inch of rim

????????????????

I ate right before I installed it, so I wasn't hungry.
