I wanted to go even wider to a 265/35-18 and finally found someone that did. They are running these on '06 aspec rims (8" rims).

Here is a link with pics...They said It couldn't be done (click here)

I'll be going with these (265/35 BFG g-force sports) in the next month and before going down to austin at the end of march! I'm excited!!!
if you got 20K out of those Z rated tires thats pretty amazing Mark.....I've never been able to get anything more than 12-15k

I'm a little confused on the install. The clip on the old shifter knob held up the leather skirt (lower part). How does the new knob use the clip or am I missing something?

Hey guys whats going on. Quick question. When ever i accelerate my car begins to shake, but when my car is coasting its fine. Chopper suggested it was probally a motormount. Just wondering if anyone ever came accross this. I know RUF has replaced his before.

sounds like that is possible. are you AT or MT? maybe you can test your theory by looking at your engine while someone revs it sitting still. might take putting some torque on the engine too. Not sure how else you can test it other than to visually check your mounts.

Man I have not done anything to my car in a long time. I think the biggest "Mod" it needs right now is a bath. Stupid Dallas weather .

so i was on my way to work, and i gotta speeding ticket...it was ridiculous, i was going 40 tops in a 35, then cop in the bike (who i saw from like a mile away) didn't even have his laser/radar gun to clock anyone, he was just posted there in his bike...whatever the case...
he pulls me over, and im wondering why, and he tells me I was going 45 in 35!...wtf?!!??!
then i told him as well, i was going 40 tops...he said he got me at 45...so i got a ticket for that...and failure to show proof of insurance. (since i got my car detailed the other day and i took it all out.)
then the asshole says.. "thanks for your courtesy"....



maybe its time i quit holding off buying a V1, anyone here get any connections!?? lol

anyways, I'm going to court with it..but imma have to postpone the date...
the same day that i leave for CANCUN! (JUST MY LUCK )

Going to court....waste of your time.

Just take the ticked to a lawyer, pay the $40 to get it dismissed, and be on your way.

my last ticket I got was with my V1, on.
No connections on the V1 since they are sold directly by V1 on their website.
