I think Fred got the 19"s to make the wheelset lighter and handle better? I remember it looked funny in the videos at Sharky's when the car was launching.

Yep, went back to 19's for better handling/grip. With the additional power I have today and with more coming, I needed lighter wheels and wanted more rubber. Also, I plan to track and 20's suck on the track.

I could go to 18's but do want to retain some bling you know

Alex, i'll be at the shop for the 2min caravan over.

Too bad about the weather...but most of us will be in our 4x4's anyway, so it won't matter too much.

Guys,

Unfortunately I will not be able to take my car to Sharkys today to get my Miltek Exhaust/new Y pipe and upgraded hoses installed.

Due to the ****ty weather the drying of the epoxy has taken longer. I am getting my car back today at 4pm and I then have to drive in the rain back to SF!!!!!

Damn Sharky, just noticed your signature.
Imagine if I listed all my previous cars in the last 2 years!
