New Wheels

So I have been watching all the mods people have been doing. Just wanted to show what I have been working on in the past couple of months.

Those are Asantis, right? I saw some today online in a different color. They look awesome and match your car nicely. Nice choice.

As for the Aspec kit I have been thinking about it.. I have been looking at getting a custom exhaust for the car from the headers back.. Likely this winter.. However I am torn between performance or appearance.. I heard ... Not sure how credible the source is that Comptech may have a super charger which will likely have the exhaust to go with available in the new year.. But I have also heard that because there are only two years of the TL-S that they may not make one.

Yeah. 3 months is a long time when you live in Canada. You only get roll on them for maybe 5-6 months of the year.

I have not seen any chats on this forum regarding the supercharger for the TL-S. I can see why they wouldn't as there would be limited volumes sold..

I had TEIN SS coil overs w/EDFC and cross drilled rotors installed all at the same time. Thus far I am prett pleased however I am still playing around with settings on the EDFC to find what I like best.

Currently I am waiting to get my car in for a wheel allignment next week. I will likely need to get the fenders rolled as I have maybe just over a quarter inche of room. So yes once the allignement is done I will need the rear fenders rolled. Didn't want to have to but with 245/30 R20 rubber there is just not enough room.
