Let's just say that I was inspired by the little school bus that could

I think they make the car a lot more of a sleeper and the Ruf wheels were blingier, but I couldn't handle the weight and those ridiculous spacers.

I am more show with wheels but understand why you are setting your car up with those nice slippers! Great color/contrast choice! Can't wait to see the pictures you are going to take!

silversurfer,

Very nice! They look fabulous.

Have you done anything to the suspension?

currently, it's the Ruf/PSS9 kit, but I'm thinking about a step up. Just don't know if I need the super adjustability of Motons/JRZ because I'm going to be using the car for high speed runs more than track days (although I'll do that too). The kit on the car now felt very nice at very high speeds.
