Good to know thank you sir I appreciate it.

I could run it static but because of having bags current it is harder to run a wider tire because the car is still pretty slammed at driving height lol

don't laborghini's run wider rear wheels even their awd models? I've seen some with more concave rear wheels, but then again i only see them once awhile and can be confusing them from the rwd models..

I have some friends in the East coast who are doing the bags with a meaty setup and say it rides better than the V3s...seems unreal to me but I want to try it for myself.

KW is offering me a killer deal on V3s so as soon as I sell some of my wheels ill buy some.

You could email any vendor and name drop yourself and how you organize BAM and you could get any part you wanted at little to no cost.
