Hey y'all. My name is Kyle and I am from Northeast Ohio. I bought a brand 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport a couple days ago. Absolutely love the car so far, and hope to be very content with my purchase for a long time. A lot of the reviews I read said the 2015 Outlander Sport is a hidden gem in a saturated crossover/SUV market, and beats the competition on affordability and warranties.

I traded in my truck for this car, and am a bit of a country person. I like the rugged, outdoors look in a car. The Outlander Sport is definitely stylish, and I am looking to achieve more of a rugged/outdoorsy look. The following are some things I'm looking into...

- Front/Rear bumper guard; the rear ones I've found aren't bad, but the front one lacks that rugged look. I'm looking for more of a Jeep front deer guard that stretches from headlight to headlight.
- Fender Flares. What are people's recommendations? Should I add them to help protect from salt/wear and tear, or are they more for decoration?
- Hitch receiver.
- Anything else people recommend.

What is the largest tire size you can put on the stock 18" rims? I would like to get new tires for trails and winter, and it would be nice to sit a bit higher.

I am also very Patriotic. I love the United States of America and am looking for Patriotic accessories (if applicable).

I'm not sure what all is available for this car yet. Like I said, first ever Mitsubishi and brand new car.

Look forward to interacting with y'all. God Bless.

-Kyle

P.S. I posted this same post in the New Member Forum and I don't think that was the right place for it.
