Looked closely at the tail of the car today only to find scratches near the emblem where the cat was using the spoiler as a perch. Looks like the Porter cable has to come back out.

I'm back :crying: Freakin poured at cruise night. I almost had to bail my interior before getting the top up :shakes head: Even with the remote top closing the interior got wet.

I got my RE-11's installed today 285/35/19's on stock suspension and wheels. No spacers.

Over the next few weeks I'll get some 255's for the front and lowering springs or budget friendly coilovers (Stance GR+ maybe?) and still debating if I want spacers because I intend to AutoX and 1/4 the car. Any other suggestions? Oh ya, might grab that Stillen front splitter for a lip.

Footloose -- looks good, man. :tup:

I don't think spacers would negatively effect you auto cross. I would avoid side blades as you might not want something sticking out on the side. Just my :twocents: I'm looking to auto cross mine next year. It's a little hard being that I work every other weekend.

Had a near death experience with a tractor trailer, other than that everything is good. :tup:

Footloose, those RE11's look so :yum:

Nice wheels footloose. Snce last week I've started driving as if i'm invisible to other drivers. Last Wednesday I had someone back in to my passenger side door while parked. Got the damage appraised today and it goes in to the shop Tuesday to get fixed. Won't mention how many people have cut me off over the last few weeks. One question though footloose, have you had a chance to evaluate the RE-11s?

lookin good, footloose! :tup:

question for footloose or anyone else. Are there any issues with running 285's in the rear and 255's on STOCK rays???? They don't stick out too far or cause to much flex?

Other than that, it looks great.

^you can run those tires no prob.

I managed to nick the bumper of my two week old car when I pulled into my parking place at work just a smidge too close to the corner of a support pillar that graces my spot (assigned). AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

However............

since I now live in Texas, and the State requires a front plate, the nick will be covered by the plate bracket. So who was complaining about front plates?

Once again, an invasive, all protecting government has come to the rescue of a dumbass! It's nice to know Big Brother is watching out for me.

I've petitioned Governor Perry to install foam rub strips on all curbing in the State so as to protect my rims from inevitable rash. He hasn't gotten back to me yet, but I did notice two Black Suburbans in front of the house today, so I assume those are the guys from the highway department.
