Tien...Nice stuff.
The tires will fit no problem, I was amazed when Dil told me that 305's probably would fit in there but it would be a bit tighter then you probably want.
HAHAHAH-Yeah right Billy...Denial is the first step my friend.
Felix, can't wait to hear it/see it
Rob-glad you like your exhaust.

^ Well the clutch issue is all fixed and everything is set. Now just changing out to the Evans NGP+ coolant.
What happend was the flywheel bolts came undone.... and the flywheel wasn't connected to the trans
. So Sharif fixed the issue, installed the new ATS TRIPPLE CARBON clutch, new trans (just to be safe) no charge, and now just finishing touches. I am flying down there MAY 2nd to drive it back.
But soon after I am driving back down to Forged and going to ZdayZ with the Forged crew.

Oh, you should probably also look into a toe and camber kit so your rear wheels are aligned correctly once the new wheels are on and the car is lowered.

I have a 19x9.5 rim (offset +24) with toyo T1R 285/30/19 tires. No rub whatsoever. If my offset was say a +20 or lower, the fenders would definately need to be rolled. FYI, the rim sits further to the outside of the car as the offset number gets lower. If its close, you can always try to add some negative camber or take out the spare tire/jack etc from the rear to lose some lbs. Hope this helps bro.

Yes we can do coilovers. A full coilover system, especially the tein's are actually easier and faster to install than lowering springs. You would be very suprised how easy it really is. You will need to get it aligned, but that would need to be done either way. Let me know if you want us to do it. We just finished lowering springs, sway bars, and exhaust system on my car over the weekend.
BTW - I absolutly love the way my car looks and sounds now. I actually had a chance to get on the car a little bit tonight, and the car definatly pulls harder from 3k to redline. Below 3k it has lost a little bit but not nearly as much as I thought it would.
edited spelling for Billy

Shawn your info is always at the perfect time. Saw you going towards 75 on Monday at 2:40 in the afternoon on Square Lake. Your car is for sure an eye catcher.
Felix, I am sure we can do it, but if you want a professional to do it thats cool too.. I think you car may be almost as loud as mine now...Sounds healty though.
Friday a High of 79 degrees..sounds like good cruising weather...
