def man. 245 is a great size tire in my opinion for this car. with the right amount of camber you gain the performance for handling and you get to keep that tire life on the tires. I was going for a decent stretched look which you can attain on a 9.5 with a 245 and at the same time there is plenty of rubber down on the road with the right camber settings in place. makes the car handle WAAAY BETTER. night and day diff. then again i'm running nt05s haha.

alright a little update.
Just for clarification, i'm not bashing any tuners. Merely stating my experience I just got the FA20CLUB tune from well FA20CLUB because well my own personal reasons. Initial reaction: Flashed and let the car run for a bit on idle and then took it for a drive. I freaked out because my car was limiting at 4.5k and there was no pull and it was super sluggish. What happened?! Well, I forgot I asked for Valet mode in map 1 haha. So hence the 4.5k rev limit and the timing being pulled big time haha. About 5 miles later, with a different map, the car started to REALLY come alive. Mind you this is just the base map and the high end just rips! The low end is pretty damn beefy too! I must admit that I'm pretty freakin impressed with the base map tune. the car is very responsive and extremely smooth. Mind you this is merely a base map. Sent some logs and we will see some improvements soon. In a couple weeks I will be adding an el header and overpipe with a new front pipe to spice things up some more followed by an updated tune. thanks @FA20Club.com |

Think you just made me decide to go with FA20CLUB for my stage 2 tune versus the other guys. Thanks!

I saw your car the other day at the complex I live in, if you're down to shoot your car we should make that happen.
Your car is super clean.

Cool cool. I did see your post about grad school, I can see how that can take up a lot of your time. Hit me up when you have some spare time and we'll figure it out.
I'm just trying to get more clean cars in front of my camera. Finishing up a cool Trail Team FJ right now.
