Nice job!

What is the mm rating on the 18x8?s Stock TL-S tires are 17 x 235mm, which is 9.25 inches.

Of course, that's the tires...

Just saw a V-22 take off on base. Never saw one before take off, and I used to work on the program. Pretty cool.

what you should really do is SELL the A-Specs (hey, if they've been sitting around for a year, you likely don't exactly need them) and take the proceeds and dump them into the s2000 account.

Gym from 4:30 - 6.

I know it's my decision to do that, but it's a good stress reliever.
