Our test auto (not the one imagined) likewise has the discretionary Watts interface rather than the standard Panhard bar. The manufactured aluminum 20-inch wheels convey 255/35zr-20 tires in front and 295/35zr-20 tires in the back. Most paramount, the last drive proportion has been changed to 3.73:1.
