    I agree. It was definitely worth the money and the wait. It took Rexpeed 4 weeks and multiple emails to get it to me, but in the end soo worth it. The only thing the wheel is missing is the plastic cover peice on the back/bottom of the wheel. I bought it used from a vendor on EvoM for 60 bucks because if it lol. I thought it was too good to pass up.

    Thanks. The calipers were painted without my knowledge by a friend of mine who owns a wheel and tire shop. When he switched over the Neogens to the TSW's last spring he thought it would be funny, but we both ended up liking it quite a bit. Now whenever he does a wheel package on red vehicles he suggests the yellow calipers.

    It was 19 degrees today, so I decided to give it a bath. I still need new summer tires, so my rims are off untill I can scrape together the cash for some rubber...

    19 degrees? Thats in celcius I assume? So thats I believe off the top of my head 65 degrees Fahrenheit.

    I don't think he can achieve more low with those 17's.

    I am still oem exhaust. And moar low is possible, but coilovers are needed, aswell as a fender roll (which will be done soon)...
