I get 4.2 mi/kWh in the uphill downhill conditions in La Jolla.

I have put most of the photos here on OneDrive. I believe that they are Public, so you can see them. My LEAF is still going strong. https://1drv.ms/u/s!Aki4YgBimIIMnyi4kXiPegYjAKD0?e=19fvD0

I have the Sharkfin Antenna from Visual Garage. It works great and is easy to install. You can buy it here. https://shop.visualgarage.com/?r=vgl Best, Lynn

Correct. Every time that I change the ride height, I need to get a wheel alignment.

I don't know the details of Megan coilovers, but I understand that there are LEAF coilover brands available with adjustable ride comfort. These other brands can be lowered, and also adjusted for a softer ride, as I understand. The TEIN coilovers were the only ones available in 2012, and they...

So here is an update regarding my TEIN coil overs: It turns out that when I had them adjusted to the lowest point, I was bottoming out on the bump stops. This happened when there were 3 people in the car, or we were moving at higher speed. I recently adjusted the front and back TEIN...

Looks a lot like the Nissan Sway Concept.

Before it was lowered with the TEIN coilovers.

Found some more pics. Some more recent shots of my LEAF: Our stock 2012 vs my modified 2011 Enjoying Julian, CA

FOR SALE - (4) Bridgestone EP422 tires and OEM rims from my 2011 LEAF. These are stock tires on stock wheels. The rims are in great condition with no curb incidents. The tires have about 4000 miles on them. The set does not include the tire pressure sensors, because they went into the my new...

Yes, lowering the car approximately 1/2 inch did smooth out the ride. The measurements from center of wheel-hub to fender lip front and rear are the same. 13 7/8 inches currently. Looks good. Rides great.

I have an update on the ride quality of the TEIN coilover suspension. I recently had the suspension adjusted to its lowest setting without interfering with the tires. This smoothes the ride considerably. I would now recommend the TEIN coilovers as long as they are adjusted to their lowest...

Stunt822, the guys at San Diego Car Stereo mounted the amplifier in the hidden cubby in the trunk, I think it is on the left side, where the LEAF tire kit is located. There is plenty of room in there. This video shows where it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPnUxSmcac8"...

I recently improved energy economy from 6 miles/kWh to 7 miles/kWh by maxing out the tire pressure. Since I put on the Tein coilovers and the suspension was riding much more firm, I had reduced the tire pressure to 32 psi to compensate, and smooth out the bumps a bit. It was really obvious how...

I haven't experienced any frosting of the bumper paint behind the rear wheel. So far, so good.
