Damn, your alive. I would like a 295, but I do have all stock camber components on my car. I know I would need to roll my fenders too.

That would not be a good idea for what your going for (traction). The neg camber will take some of the traction the 295 creates away.

+1. I say go with a 285/35. How much difference is a 285 to a 295? Not much. I could see if you were talking about comparing a 285 to a 345.

Makes sense. Anyone planning on fender rolling anytime soon? I have the shop to do it, if so.

I think the best car you could go see would be Ryan's car. I think he has +18 and +17 offsets with 255 and 285 tires. It'll give you a good idea if you want to go with a higher or lower offset.

Not a lot really (mostly mentali suppose). Hell KDW's are larger in 285 than mmost 295's. Just depends on brand. Like i told you in pm Shawn, if i were doing it again, i would like to have gotten +12. At the time there were no more LE's coming in so i got the +22. I dont mind them really, but +12 is a bit more aggressive looking.

True. Brand also matters.

It's not so bad when you've done it 5 or more times

well that would number 3. 1. i had to take off the cats on the 04 to install the frist test pipes. 2. then take those off after the wreck and put my cats back on. 3. tried once to take the cats off the 07 can couldnt get that one bolt off. tried to pay someone else to get them off and he couldnt do it. then i finally got that little b i t c h off today. i acctually snaped one of the bolts in half the other half is stuck inside the stock cat.

now onto finishing my kit to get it ready for paint. hopfully it will be ready for import face off thing and NPR.

Very nice. I will probably do test pipes later down the road... not in any kind of hurry with a smashed rear end.

Plus my back still hurts and I'm going to dyno all of the mods I put back on.
