Treated her to something fancy on 86 day!

Installed JPM Coachworks Alcantara dash trim panels and knee pads to compliment the gauge hood I already had.

I wanted to go with 17x9 wheels that were lighter and wider to run 245/40/17 tires. They are better suited for track use with the extra sidewall.

They were OEM tail lights that I cut open and sprayed the chrome bezels black and then sealed back up.

Any reason for that tire size? I see a lot of guys running 255 on 9inch width wheels. I'm still trying to decide between 17x8 and 17x9 for track use considering I'm not on coils.

Diminishing returns on lap times with that much tire and NA power. 245's are cheaper as well.
