Sounds like a fine time to upgrade to a set of custom wheels/tires. Get the one wheel fixed and put winter tires on them. You can thank me later with a beer for helping you spend your $$$

I don't think anyone has one in our group. There is a guy that comes to the Nat'l Meet from CO. that has one. It sounds pretty good in person, I would buy it over the XLR8 exhaust for sure. I don't know if I could ever spend 1200 on ANY exhaust for my car though. Too much money for very minimal gains. I think my car sounds pretty good with my stage 3 setup anyway.
But I guess I don't count as being apart of your group
I'm like Mike though Don't get onto this section too often....

It looks like March 8th. As far as what we are doing I have no clue. I think we might grab a bite somewhere and go "cruise" to a good spot to take some pics. If you have any suggestions, let us know.

I suggest lets meet in OP somewhere for dinner and then, since Anil likes the places where i recently took some pics, we can go there and get some pics. Only thing, March 8th is Friday and we will have to take pics before sunset for the places I have in mind! For night time photography, the only place I know where good pics come out, is by downtown airport. There is a road that runs around it and we can probably take some pics there with downtown in the background.

Anil, did you fig out the alignment from firestone? I was just there and they gave me a quote for around $250 for life time alignment and the wheel balancing!!

I spoke to my friend who works for Firestone and she is giving a generous discount on lifetime alignment....You can buy the alignment here and use it at any firestone....You can go in as many times as you want ()
Regular Pricing = $180 + Tax
Discount= $25 (roughly 15%)
Discount Pricing = $155 + Tax
I have 5 peeps down....if anyone else would like to get in on the deal, lemme know....

#1391
