16x7 +42 Rota Grid on 205/45/16 BFG Comp2 with 15mm Garageline spacers. Also thought I would try an EZ lip for fun to see how long it lasts.

Yeah I like the flush look and it makes the wheels look larger. FMIC is the Mishimoto J-Line.

The only thing i could think is if the tire pressures werent exact in all tires they would cause the tires to be slightly larger/smaller than the others causing different speeds? Just a thought.


For me i washed, clay barred, and sealed the new paint before it takes any damage.

That would be a Great idea as I run my fronts 5lbs higher air than the rears as a starting point for tracking the car and this was a track day set up.. Neat Thanks
Nice job on the Clay I love the way the car feels after doing that with a nice coat of wax ..

Threw two JL 12s in the hatch. Cutting it close on room but they fit. Not sure if I'm going to leave them or not, I'm considering putting the 12s in the mustang and getting a single 10 for the ST.

Went for a "spirited" drive earlier today, about 92* ambient out. Coolant temps got up to about 227* after coming to a stoplight for a few minutes. Got home, pounded down a cold one, re-drilled my grill "holes" bigger and removed the shutter panels on the radiator shroud.

Probably not going to net any results but it will make me feel like I done something productive today haha!
