The tropical storm chevys are my guilty pleasure.
I'm in cahoots with Blipshift to get a Typhoon shirt made and supposedly it's in the works ....I shot them a few ideas and they are rolling with it and I'm awaiting designs to look at whenever they send them. They have a Syclone shirt too...I have it of course...hehe.

Here you can see just how low and the little bit of camber...

Just not sure how I feel about those spokes kicking out at right angles. Stamped "flow formed" marking shit is unnecessary as well. Useless bitching I know but the lack of wheel option variety is killing me with this car. I like the idea of these Koenigs but I think I am hung up on the fact that these are Koenigs. A Japanese brand with a German name that has generally translated to crap in any language in the past.

Cant deny the power of the wang though.

They arent a Japanese brand they are based out of Singapore with multiple factories based all over the world, like Advanti USA. At one point Konig and Rotas came from the same factory. I like these wheels better than the white fifteen52's that a majority of people have (if you have these I'm not hating just not what I was looking for) Yes we dont have a broad range of wheels but there are still a good amount of choices in you do the research.

Or - convert to 4x100, as I did. Never looked back.

Arent you running the wide body/wheel package from Fury? Those wheels are already 4x108 why would you need to convert to run that set?

I converted before Geoff's flares. Was running 16s from Motegi. With these ML7s, had to go for 17s.

I was looking into those mL7's before I bought the Hypergrams, had them in the cart in that blue color but the set was expensive and from what I remember the Hypergrams where lighter and only $140/wheel at Discount Tire. I didnt want to go wider than 215's because I feel the extra spinning weight and resistance due to the larger contact patch would slow the car down and fast is my main priority, I like fast.

Ah so. These are for the street only. I will be using Enkeis for the track. Turn-in on 245s is immediate tho.

I love the turn in difference even on the 215's...not sure what the ML7's weigh but the Hypergrams are only 16.4 lbs per wheel

Yesterday I did the summer oil change;
Ravenol REP 5W-30 oil
Fram ULTRA XG3600 filter
emptied the Damond OCC
hit any rust spots in the front clip area with POR-15 while under there

FYI....I would get the Sleeves for those hoses asap....They will cook and it will not be a pleasant exp.....When I got my hoses they didn't have them...and I started to notice they were coming in contact with HOT engine components. Said something to Damond and they came out with the sleeves that cover the hoses after that...Thank god I got them.
