I love this color. It is like a different color every time you see the car.

Would you be able to post some more pics of your tire set up? I am thinking about running 225/45 on the stock rims

Tirerack is a great resource for sizing. Under the "Specs" tab they show 225/45 from any brand I've researched as a good fit on our 7" rims.

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ot+Super+Sport

The Michelins replaced Bridgestone Potenza RE-11A's that were ¼" wider and 4 lbs. heavier per corner so fitment is no problem at all and there is no rubbing fr/rr.

Really liking the PSS's for all-around wet/dry grip and ride quality. They might not have quite the ultimate dry grip at the track as the RE-11A's (if temps are 50°F+, the RE-11A's suck in cool temps and wet conditions) but I prefer them for street use.

I have figured out why Silver Ignition seems to have so many different hues.

It's because it's actually very neutral in color - causing whatever colors happens to be around it at the time to appear in the observed color.

For example, on nice clear days, it looks bluish - because of the blue sky over head. On rainy days, the paint looks very grey. In forested areas, there's tints of green. Sunset, you'll pick up some reds, oranges, and yellows.

It really is a very nice color.

@10Tim
Wow, I would have totally judged you without seeing pictures.... but that painted badge looks awesome.

Can't wait to post some pictures after my parts/warm temps come. I am so jealous of those dry roads right now.
