Sounds like a great upgrade, can't wait to see them tomorrow. I hope to get Rivals next year. Did you stay with 17" for the new wheels or get 18's? Have you had any rubbing at the front with a 245 or does the new wheels' offset avoid that issue? Which wheels, BTW? (yeah, I know, lots of questions ;-)

Finally found time to fit my bumper properly. Actually feels like a sports car now but yet still want more power!

I went with 17s to keep the weight down. The wheels are kosei rp4 or something like that. They are 17x8 with 36 mm offset. With the 245 tires they poke a bit which is perfect to me haha. I haven't noticed any rubbing or anything at all. I guess I'll see for sure tomorrow. I got everything from tire rack and it was 1700$ shipped to ogdensburg after exchange rates for tires and rims.

If paint, what did you use/how did you do it?

Cool, see you at 9am at BelAir in Orleans.

Yeah, it was a blast! We were back in the "good" lot, plus a whole bunch of fast drivers from the CADL club in Montreal made the trip down and supplied their usual fierce competition.

Despite what the sign says, I was not hot-dogging it.

Well it was an intense day of racing today! Colin lead the day from start to finish and I spent the whole time trying to catch up! Most of ny day was spent in second but in the end I was bumped down to 4 th .003 seconds behind 3rd!!! The top 4 spots were within 4 tenths! What close racing!
