Yeah thats because the kdw's in 275 are only 35...I am looking for 275/40. Good year f1's are like that but they are expensive. Falkin has some in this size as well but they are not the best tire...so im still looking as of now.
I am going to go FI one day but when I do I will swap my gears back...it will be some time before I do it so I want to enjoy the gears now. This will be the first time for gears...actualy first time for anything other than a FWD honda or acura
I have come to the dark side muahahahaha 
So on the 06 GT....4.30 or 4.10 IYO

. If I decide to do gears, they will be 4.10s. It all depends on what kind of driving you do most, city or highway. Your best bet would be check the performance forum and see if anyone is running 4.30s

Car is still not built...actualy it was told to me that it could be on a comodity hold
they will let me know when they find out for certian. This stinks....

Yes, I am closer.
I did some checking ..a guy from NJ got his car 8 days from the shipping date. So I figure monday or tues for my car to arrive. I hope tues or wed, so the funds are clear at my bank.
I checked the date of your friends car. his was shipped on Nov. 19 and arrived on Dec 8, so that gives you an idea around when yours will arrive.

That's cool, atleast you get to see how your wheels look on a car. Just don't let your friend do to many burnouts

Hey guys...
What's a few more days going to matter after waiting as long as you have already? Your cars have been built and have been shipped, and based on the dates you both gave regarding shipping date and ETA your cars should be here anytime.
I know that what I said may be hard to accept, but I was in your shoes exactly one year ago (as of December 14th your unit has been shipped via convoy with ETA week of December 25...then changed to week of January 1st). Drove it home on the 28th.
I remember something a guy told me when I kept asking him about the delays on my order (it was on a delay for almost a month before it was scheduled for build)
"getting stressed out about the car isn't going to make it come any faster. It's going to be built/shipped soon"
Another thing to think about....
You could be like many people here that just placed their order and are waiting for their car to be scheduled, or have ordered months ago and are still 'Clean/Unscheduled'.

It's not the wait for the car to get built that is getting to me. It's the fact that it is sitting in a lot less than 30 mins from my house! Anxiety is starting to take over .
