Not wanting to derail the topic again, quick update. Had the brakes checked out. Microfracture in one of the brake lines and a faulty ABS sensor. Put my StopTech lines in a bit earlier than expected, and replaced the sensor. Tested the car from 60 to full stop, no more skids an solid pedal.

Looks like next week, Ill also be posting pics of my new brakes all ready to go Just waiting for the rotors to arrive

Wheels: Avid.1 AV52 in Brushed Bronze finish 18x8.5 +35

Tires: BFG Comp 2 AS 245 45 18

Suspension: BC Coilovers, F+R camber Kits, Godspeed rear sway bar w/ moog endlinks

The wheels sit pretty well, but the rears are a bit sunken in. I just ordered 15mm spacers for the back and 5mm for the front. should hopefully have those installed by next weekend

And we'll leave out the part where Drake's generation has copied beats, rhythm's, and sometimes entire harmonies from generations that preceded him.

OTOH, nice video and nice ride CG95!

So long overdue upgrade wheel/ tires
Enkei TM-7 18x9.5 +38 all around
Continental DS 255/18/45 front
285/18/40 rear

All thanks to Blnewt for helping with wheel size/offset

The side picture sucks, I will make a better one sometime later.

Looking good, glad it worked out and didn't take long to get the wheel pkg together, bet you're liking the new tires quite a bit too, should really be nice after about 300 miles on them.
