I went with 18x9's with 255/45's all around, car handles great with this combo. I have some 14" Baer Eradispeed rotors sitting here that will be going on the car Tuesday afternoon. They aren't drilled or slotted though, just plain. It will make a nice improvement in the brakes though. My stock rotors are warped already with 22k on them.
Nice exhaust Scott! Post up a sound clip when they're on the car.

I'm surprised at the rotors being warped. I took mine off after 22k and 2 road track days and about 40-50 runs down the 1/4 and they were pretty smooth still. Just had em resurfaced at work the other day and will set aside in case I ever need to put them back on.
But your car is lookin hot!

Question for the day. Does anybody run a water temp gauge and if you do what does it read at normal operating temps.? I set my Tuner to kick on at 180 Hi and my gauge nevers goes above that mark. Do I need to let the engine get warmer for a bit more HP or what??
Also its grey and rainee here , they are calling for a light snow tonight.

Hey Darrell,
I have the Aeroforce scan gauges so I am reading the sensors that the computer sees. I have changed nothing that would effect the water temp. and mine runs 190 when fully warmed up and cruising.

Okay guys I have put the Magnaflows on today and I am in love with the change so for. I don't want to type this twice so here is a link to a new thread. Hey Larry...I think I have just cost you another $400 bucks. I have only driven it 5 miles but listen to the vids. It is day and night!!! And there is zero drone with this set up. Which is OBX longtubes and H-pipe and Magnaflow mufflers.

Check out my new exhaust thread.. A little 3M tape and duct tape can work miracles.

Those are nice and would have worked great. I have a roll of 3M automovtive tape for years and that is the best holding stuff around.
Morning everyone else
Another poopy day of weather I see.
