It is great. I know a guy at a Car Toys, and he let me try out the W0, W3, and W7. The W3, IMO has the best sound to price ratio.

Oh ya, on a side note, I learned I will be going to Canada March 12-17.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about adding 1.5-2 inches on my rear wheels. Do you think I'll run into any fitment issues with my suspension as well? I'm on Tein SS right now. So with the new setup, it'll either be 20x10 or 20x10.5 on the rears.

After today, I'm holding off all mods until the car is 100% mine after the year. McDavid is now letting us have the car for $25,600 & says that it may drop even lower by November.

With that, I've decided to just keep all my money off kits, suspension, etc. and just use all that as a big down payment seeing as I know now that there's a good chance I can afford the car & have it paid off.

I think you're fine with 20x10. I wouldnt go any wider.

Let me look through my wheel threads that I have saved and see what I can come up with.



You see my new toy?

It's not gonna work for me. I finally got my brother lined up to TIG weld the new flex pipe in for me and Saturday was the only time. I really need to get this done as it won't pass inspection without it and I'm already past due.

Watch the drinking and driving laws . . the amounts are much stricter and so are the punishments.

So, are you still planning on making it to the Nurburgring? And what kind of rental car have you lined up?

Save it for next weekend, like I am.

If you come early enough, you might beat the staff to the gate.

I PLAN on going to C/C but with my track record just count me out; hopefully tonight won't be too bad.

And if I make it, no, my car won't be clean at all..

I am too tired. Plus the bar is right downstairs anyway. Lots of business people though. I am going into the main part of the city later today so this should be interesting.

I'll drag myself to the meet, but I'll be leaving shortly afterwards. Need to run errands earlier than usual so I can come home & grab a quick nap.

Made it out to C&C today but got there around 10:30. There were a decent amount of cars still there and I got some good photos but I'm sure I missed a lot of cars that got there and left early.

C&C wasn't that good this time . . . fairly light turnout. Wonder if Friday's weather kept some away or could it have been because there's another C&C next weekend.

Anyway, did see 2 3rd gens out there and I saw Fade from the distance, but no one else.

My brother cancelled on me, so I got there about 9:15 or so. I bet that was your TL I saw, actually looked for you and then it was gone.

Anyway, I'm in for 9ish or so as well.

BTW, had a little fun with one of the Ferraris, a M16 Scuderia. I was behind him and he didn't really see me and was too busy showing off with a bit of spirited acceleration. I took off right behind and caught a nice 2nd gear chirp that got his attention . . . his top was down. We were turning off of Spring Creek, turning on to the southbound Tollway access road. He jumped on it blowing past an Audi TT and I follow staying close in 1st, catching 2nd, loosing 2-3 car lengths by 3rd where I back off. Too many problems to keep going, but it was fun.

Haha that sucks. Hope you get better man. Don't party this Friday, cuz I have a good feeling that the C/C next weekend is going to be very good, especially with this 60+ degree weather that we have been seeing.
