    Convex mirror in mine. wish I had a different one. Depth perception is crap, so it's hard to tell is someone is near my rear corner or beside me.

    worry about the guy in front of you not behind, once he gets his nose next to your door panel you'll know that he is coming and then you can react.

    Convex. Had both, but convex gives more of a panoramic view and doesn't rattle like my wink did, wish my street cars had convex.

    i miss my wink mirror!! but i think it is subject to different cars. i have a convex in the bimmer and i cant see crap out of it but llike mickey most of the cars are in front of me so i dont really use it much. But when we get put into big bore i use it a lot trying to figure out what is coming up on me at an alarming pace!
