Car- 2014 Raven Black FR-S
The whole idea behind buying this car was the new regulations for SCCA "Street" class. I began with a set of 18x8 wheels with 235 40 18 RS3 tires that were only mounted because they were off my previous STX car, a 2009 WRX. The over all diameter was nearly an inch larger than stock and with only a cat back exhaust and drop in filter there was no need to lengthen my gearing the way they did. The tires had great grip but very sluggish acceleration. After I saw the task I had to catch up to the RX8's and 370's at the time and know my enjoyment of the car would be crippled by having to use 7 inch wide wheels, the whole "save money and run C Street" thing went out the window. STX here I am again.
