AME FS01 delivered!

Look what UPS man brought this week...

AME (Tracer) FS01 [Hyper Silver] - 18x9 +25, 18x10 +25
Falken FK452 - 245/40/18, 275/40/18
Tein S Tech
SPC Rear Adjustable Camber and Toe

Hopefully I can get them installed next week (at least the wheels). Springs can wait a little while as they take some more work but wheels/tires will be easy. Can't wait to see what they look like on the car.

BTW, my photography skills suck, you don't have to tell me.

not sure why you would get aftermarket camber arms and toe bolts and go with tein s-techs. can you get within spec without them with s-techs.

Getting back in specs(barely) does not mean you will get even tread wear, the OEM specs are very wide to limit warranty work, but doesn't mean they are optimized for tire wear or performance. WIth the SPC setup, you can dial the rear alignment to the exact specs you want

Are you switching to aftermarket shocks to help out with the S-techs as well?

I figured I might as well do it right the first time. Yes its only a .7" drop, but I might as well keep it in spec from the beginning and not decide to on my 2nd set of tires. After spending the money on the wheels, whats another $100 or so? lol

For now no, but my stock shocks will need to be replaced eventually. Right now it will wait though.

Yeah I looked into black, but went with the Silver because you can see it better. I figured if I want to get wheels, I'd like them to be visible and that tough to do with black wheels when you are more than a couple feet from the car. These you cannot get with a chrome lip (pssh, whats a lip???

), otherwise I would have considered it more.
