I personally recommend just running out the new tires and going all out when those wear out though.

Going all out = more costs down the line too. I might as well jump up to 20's since the price of the tires will be less than 19's! :shakes head:

Edit - oops, I assumed this is for the mic...

my rode mic is coming in tomorrow. i will give it a shot plugging it into the gopro if it improves anything as there is a guy on youtube that appears to like the rode + hero2 combo. i got the videomic pro which is a stereo shot-gun mic.

i made the mount for the recorder too just in case i can't isolate the pedal noise when my shoe contacts them by using the new cupholder mount coming soon. i can rotate the mount on the rear bar, which is nice. :p

i may mount an adapter and put camera #2 facing the rear. :p many options.

or just get spacers and lower your ride. that alone will make it look nicer. i will note that the car looks fine if you get the right offsets on stock ride height.

yah, dont bother with re-using stock tires. just get the right wheels and tires you really want pint, and keep them for a long time.

my G's wheel/tire is 1300 per corner. but ive had these wheels for like 7yrs now. tires have been re-wrapped a few times. :p

Yesterday was not a good day for me at all in terms of work. I blew out some settings remotely from another location that directly impacted two important switches, taking a number of important servers offline for an hour and a half. :crying:

Well, live and learn. Hopefully there isn't too much political blowback from it.

Good morning Brantly. :hello:
I'm guessing you'll be laying low at work for a couple of days. It's all good. We all make mistakes.

Mr. GaleForce, this one's for you. :icon17:

Hello everyone. :hello:

Good afternoon Mr.kenchan. I have been very busy here. Just getting to log on now.

Z related, I have a Stillen license plate bracket to install. And I'll be removing the front bumper so I can try to get a better fit with my front lip. Oh, and I'm still on the hunt for a body shop. I'm at the point now where I just need someone to clean it up and spray it. I can look after the installation.

I'm for that if it fits with the sizes mentioned above. This is what I prefer to buy my PSS at since they aren't too bad on the pocketbook.
