Just another angle of one the fastest Cosmic blues in my area. And she really does go... fast.

what springs you have??

I struggled with the bronze or gunmetal. Not too noticable I thought. I did put the competition decals on the wheels because they are close in color to the blue. For whatever it is worth, I am pleased with as I needed to run a wider tire than stock. I believe they are about 21lbs. Which is a little lighter also. They have held up well after 15000 or so. But I will get some Work wheels when I am able.

You know W. I have the Cobb. if you zoom in you can see the little decal. haha. Now what kind of exhaust do I have? back at ya buddy.

I think I'll be getting the Gunmetal Tenzos when I have extra money. What size tires did you wind up going with?

 

[daonly1around]

i'm going to try to find some used and paint them white, i think white is going to look REALLY good on the CB

I was shy and went with 225/40s because i did not have springs yet and worried about rub if i went with coilovers. But I went with a more track oriented tire { softer } And gained lots of traction. I do not care so much about treadware i guess. I really like the gunmetal too. Probably the cooler color actually. If you do a tire wheel package you might want them mounted locally so you can reinstall the stock wheels' tire pressure sensors. I forgot. Car is fine but the warning light stays on all the time! good luck

Those wheels look awesome!! The tow hitch is as far under the cop radar as you can get! Nice car M.

boost right
afr middle
egt left

hitch is only 1 1/4", normally you can not see it, i just leave the 1 1/4" to 2" adapter on there all the time which is what you see sticking out. I used to have a truck with a 2" receiver for the bike rack, i chose to keep it and install the hitch on the 3 as apposed to buying another rack.
