Picked up the RCE Yellow Springs locally for a screaming deal, never installed.
My 2 year plan is becoming a 3 month plan.

Very nice! Gorgeous shots and loving the things you're doing to your car already! On a side note: what camera are you using for these shots? They're amazing!

The very nice shots were taken by my buddy, not sure which camera he was using that day. Pretty sure it was a Nikon but will confirm and post back.

So I've been torn on tire choice once I get new wheels.
I was originally wanting something sticky for autocross, but realized that won't be the where I spend most of my time. I really enjoy cross country rallies and trips, so something that can perform well in wet conditions would be a nice safety net. As it turns out, I have a connection at Continental, so I just ordered some ExtremeContact DW's for a killer price. I'll sacrifice some dry traction for the wet performance, but after reading countless reviews I feel this tire will suit my needs for the near future. Now to get those wheels!

Originally wanted PSS.
Then Hankook RS-3, then contemplated V12's. But the ECDW's were rated well, and too good a price to pass up. Plus their asymmetrical tread pattern reminds me of PSS.

Just ordered some wheels, Enkei RPF1 17x9 +35 in Gunmetal.
Was thinking black on these originally, but I'd like to see the wheel features from a distance, and not have them blend in with the tires. Plus I think the gunmetal will compliment the already heavy black accents on the car. Should have both the wheels and tires this weekend. Now just need to order the camber adjustment pieces, then we should have some real progress here! Thanks to @OAKOS Automotive for the wheel/lug hookup!
