Anybody know of a good deal on my list of mods? I usually end up buying tires from Tirerack and order most of my parts from ft86speedfactory. Advise appreciated, Next purchase on 4/16, who wants my money?
Do you have coilovers? or are you still on the stock strut? I have the same wheels except they arent the SP spec. With that much tire on the wheel you might need a 5mm spacer in front if you're still on stock struts, if you're on coils you're all good

you're correct. I must've skipped right past it lol..


You should be good OP!

As tires go I honestly don't really have a preference on where to get tires. I just google the tires I want in the size I want and cross shop from there. I think most of the time Tirerack will show up though.

Yeah Tire Rack always shows up.. Buy 4 get 70.00 prepaid visa....

How are the SP spec?
The SP spec's are definitely lighter than the normal ones, but are more expensive. I love my 57xtremes and think the red rays center cap is what makes it worth it lol. The wheels are such a work of art and flow with the car nicely. I get plenty of compliments on them as well!

rub the fenders or the perch? Fenders is correctable by adding camber. But I agree that 265 is quite a bit of tire for this car and 255/35 would work better

The plastic lining in the fenders... also something about the side marker as well. even 255 I thought I say someone post in the rays 57xtreme 18X9.5 +40 thread saying that it rubbed. I guess it might depend on how low you go though.

So you said a stage 2 tune is coming but typically stage 2 means a header (at least) as well. Do you have a header plan?

Probably because of the awesome vehicle it gets to lead.

Umm, did it just wink at me?

I'm enjoying following your mod blog. Thanks!

Really enjoying this build. Nice work!

Any thought to custom paint the rear spats and side skirt to color match the body, but leave the lower lip component black?
