Hi guys

I'm interested in buying a used 2025 model. I was curious if people had any experience with

1. the inner tire wearing out faster regardless of alignment and balancing tires. This was a common issue when researching about lexus rc or is350s and I picked Acura to avoid this issues.

2. Is there a parasitic drain problem with these cars? I noticed the previous owner had to bring his new car into the dealer almost every month since purchasing and it seemed to be to investigate the battery dying as he had it replaced and the charging system investigated.

Would value your opinion as I'm debating which car to buy.

I live in Northern Ontario to be specific where winter is 6 months long and we get a crazy amount of snow and the roads can get icy. I survived last few winters just driving around a tiny fwd car but it had 6" ground clearance and it made it through ok.

I feel confident about the sh awd but I'm worried about the ground clearance with all the snow. I do live in the city but some mornings it can be messy in the residential streets for sure. I'll of course be getting the best winter tires on rims for them if I buy the car.

Just wanted to get people's ownership experience.

Called around and can't find anyone who does it. Any recs who does it well?

Does the OEM sport tail tidy by Yamaha shorten the length and reduce the bulk?

Or does it only reduce the bulk?

For those riding the stock fender, does it block all the mud when riding through rain?

I'm wondering if I should go back to the stock fender from my OEM tail tidy since it seems to be the same length anyway (or am I wrong?),

or

consider adding a rear tire hugger in addition to the OEM tail tidy. Or leave it be.

Seems like everyone's booked up for months.
