I ordered new tires for my car today. Nitto NT555's 265/30/20 fronts and Nitto NT05 305/30/20's rear. as long as they can source them within a week or 2. find out monday.
what y'all think? Good setup? I wanted to go Mich. SS's but 3 month nationwide backorder on my sizes killed that idea.
they are going on these...

Finally brought the car out of storage. Car got the 3 bucket wash, iron-x and Duragloss Aquawax done by my bud at Toxix Detailing. Then drove home in the rain.

How do you like the glass roofs, even since you can't open them?. Be cool to try one out

Drove over to MRT to pick it up - replacement engine is done after last year's catastrophic failure the first time I took it WOT after the turbo install.
Nice easy drive coming home, kept it out of boost until I can get it dyno tuned; no faith in the BBR supplied tune on the new engine. This is what we found in the oil pan of the old engine:
Chunks of piston skirt. Haven't done a tear down to see what all is damaged. Compression testing showed problems on 2 pistons, one on each bank.
If this snow will stop falling I'll get the catch can back on the car, and take care of a few other items.

Those are off the bottom of the piston, the skirt, so when they broke it can get down to the pan. There are marks on some of the pieces where it was chewed up a little passing the crank probably.

Go for it, you have nothing to lose. That red is an eye catcher anyhow, believe me.
