And now for some low. Found a set of RCE Yellows used here on the forum and jumped on them. Well, I didn't literally JUMP since that's kind of dangerous. But I bought and installed them, and so far loving the springs. Just washed the car yesterday but haven't had a chance to get pics.

SOON.

On Friday I stopped by Parts Shop MAX for wheels spacers, and installed them yesterday.

I purchased one 30mm full set (2x: 15mm bolt-on + 7, 5 and 3mm) and one set of just 15mm bolt-ons. Figured I didn't need 30mm anywhere, so I could mix/match the shims.

NOTE: 20mm is not enough to cover stock studs! I tried the 15+5 and the wheels would not sit flush, even with indents on the back. I needed 22mm at least. Ended up with a total of 22mm F and 23mm R. Not how I was planning to arrange it, but couldn't be done any other way without more shims.

Still, I like how they turned out. And no rubbing at all! This is on RCE Yellows.

A better shot of the wheels (prior to spacers).

Thanks, Andy! I would have liked to come out yesterday but man I was beat. Lots of headache installing spacers this weekend. Not so much an issue with this car as it was on the Mustang, though. That car will be the death of me, one way or another!

Hey Andy, sorry I completely spaced on tail light pics. I ended up spending most of the weekend moving my mom. Need to get my gf or someone to step on the pedal while I snap some with my nice camera.


In other news, I got my GrimmSpeed strut brace installed. That took just barely longer than coffee took to brew. I took a couple cell phone pics that I'll upload shortly.

Since I'm due for my 30k service, I just ordered a bunch of goodies from @FT-86 SpeedFactory. Free shipping on $250+ orders hooked me in. I added SS lines just to get the deal.

- ENEOS Sustina 6-pack
- Motul Gear 300 for trans and diff
- Motul brake fluid
- Perrin air filter
- Chase Bays SS brake lines

If it comes in time, next weekend will be busy.
