what size tires are you running?

Just took a few quick ones before the rain comes...and I took all the stuff out of the trunk this time:

Oh...and no, I haven't made the driveby video yet. And I don't know why I keep thinking Baltimore.....Columbia.....sheesh!

And regarding the tires:

They are 19x9.5 +22 / 19x10.5 +12
265/35/19 - Front
305/30/19 - Rear

Yes! Jon and I figured it out after we downloaded the owners manual and found the correction. I was trying to correct the issue in the ACC positon but it needed to be in the ON position. Close the door...hold the lever for 3 seconds or more and boo yaa! Two working windows again! :icon17:

And you know what? No Sienna's messed with me! I was so concentrating on my car I really didnt notice anyone ooo'ing and ahh'ing....but hopefully they were! :tup:

Definately gonna take some getting used to, thats no lie! I did make it out of Altered without scraping the black plastic piece under the bumper! :tup:

I do feel a slight shimmy and the steering wheel needs to turned slightly to the right to make the car go straight. I'll drive it for a few weeks to let the coilovers settle and then come back for an alignment. Sound good?

Thanks, Jon & Altered for everything! The experience has been amazing from the start to the finish.....but we aren't at the finish yet.....;)

Some nighttime pics.....

I've got a few questions - what advantage do you get with these Stillen pulleys. I don't quite understand what they are for - its not supercharged is it. What are the pulleys for, alternator, water pump?!?!?!?!

Also, these intakes - do they work in-sync with some sort of chip for better performance, or is it mostly looks that you get with them.

Car looks unreal by the way - Black and blue, can't go wrong - great job buddy.

Here's what it says from the Stillen website regarding the pulleys:

STILLEN has long manufactured precision pulleys for our supercharger kits. We have used this expertise to produce a new line of high performance crank and accessory pulleys.

Each pulley is machined from 6061 aerospace grade billet aluminum with a bold new design to maximize performance, strength and minimum weight. 304 stainless steel sleeves are used for main seal contact points for durability. Stock timing marks are maintained and keyways are precision broached. All pulleys are CNC turned, milled and balanced based on computer generated designs.

Up to 80% lighter weight than stock steel and up to 10% lighter than other aftermarket pulleys, we’ve seen power gains of up to 10+ HP at the wheels.

I believe the one I purchased (Lightweight Standard Crank Pulley) also assists with making the 7AT shift smoother. I also added the Gates belt, too. And no, no supercharger on mine......yet (;))
