So i went to the track yesterday, and the car with the suspension is amazing!! Only thing not the tires lol.

I was able to pass car like a charm, but made a little mistake coming too hot in one of the Esses, the ass went out, modulate the braking to bring the nose back, which it did, but now i was too far in the corner to finish the Esses...lol Went a bit off track and came back, at that point i decide to slowdown a little bit more before that corner!

But the car is easy to drive and the input is amazing, i was trailbraking a lot but still was able to keep the car from over rotating and was pretty fast considering the shitty tire!

Now i am debatting between 235-40-17 rs3 or 245-40-17 kumho ecsta xs. I think the 245 will poke too much in the front.

when do you guys see this in production, how much for it and how easy is it to install?

any steering clearance issues lock to lock with your wheel/tire setup currently? I always thought 17's looked kind of small on our cars but your car pulls it off nicely!
