Not at the moment, because these tires have a ton of thread left. I was thinking the Bridgestone RE-01R. I think TireRack has an overstock on the 225/45/17 and are selling for $125 each. On top of that, Bridgestone has this mail-in rebate for SCCA members for $100.

Probably not. Still too slow... I have like no power mods and essentially stock suspension. Just want to close the 5 second gap between me and the next guy. Yup.

100% Complete

+1 for roomies, high school classmates, Kevin M, and Kistune

Stance Coilovers. Yup. Dropped the front and rear. Looks hella nice right now. Rides a little stiff though. Still need to mess with the dampening and have an alignment done.

Spring Rates:

F: 8K
R: 6K

Pics!!

Only could afford one. Actually, the guy I got it off, he only had one and I got it for a really good deal. Thanks Rob (stratos) for the seat and accessories!!
