Can you elaborate on what problems you were having?
I've had the SPC upper control arms along with BC coilovers since 2010. I switched out the BC's for Tein Basis Z a few days ago. Besides the front being a little too low (haven't had time to readjust the height yet), I don't think I've had any problems with the upper control arm hitting anything. What should I be looking out for? Thanks.

If anything I really need to get the alignment done out back.
Speaking of which, car feels so much better properly aligned. Excited to go to to this Charlotte Speedway thing now, car feels awesome with the alignment and new brakes. Just hope the transmission doesn't punk out

I also did my tires ( summers) a few months ago with Firestone Firwhawks, really impressed with them so far and all 4 installed with alignment was under $900 
Anyone else thought about these

All the reviews I read were great and they seemed more of a sleeper tire to me. I got all 4 installed out the door for $708 and I also had their lieftime alignment from before.

I just picked these up and installed on Friday, (assuming you're referring to the Firehawk Indy 500's?) haven't had hardly any seat time yet, but on Saturday I did try to break them loose around a turn that my rear would get squealy before on and they stuck. So I hoping thats good signs to come.

Really like them so far, I've push mine a few times in a few turns I like, but no too hard as I haven't installed my rear sway bar yet so not too much

After having new hfc and ypipe upgraded, my car sounds like **** due to custom axle back exhaust. Ordering new midpipe and axleback.
Went to local shop and had wheel alignment, car was pulling to the right. Some bolts were rusted and and need to replaced, couldn't get alignment 100% correct.

Yea I was gonna say, if drone is no issue then some resonators should clear that up. I'm trying to design a custom active exhaust... normal baffled muffler on the left, cutout valve + straight pipe on the right, 3" piping all around. Just need to find a shop to do it for a decent price.

Well yea, ive got Hotchkis, z1 collars, and whiteline bushing. Car feels planted so far. I plan on writing a tire review once I get some miles logged and use to how the tires react in certain situations. Speaking of, I'll have a hell of a nice test for them in about 3 weeks when I hit the dragon!
Instead of going the more expensive route, why not just got a couple of Vibrant resonators? They work wonders with rasp and tone.

Coincidentally, my (cheap) external bounce flash just stopped working today, and I'm needing a new one.
There's no EXIF data because that's not the original. I always cut & crop, resize to 1000px width and border my images on the forum. For continuity, and to post images with usable, downloadable file sizes.
