I was hoping you'd see that, haha
Thanks!! I might actually take you up on that offer, assuming it fits lol! Would I be able to swing by tomorrow night around 8:15ish after my class and try it out?
Thanks!
Yeah, that's cool. Just shoot me a text tomorrow when you're on your way, I might be out at dinner with a friend.
Levi, I'm not hip to the orange. But I didn't like the OD green either. But I'm sure it will look cool in person. Did you ever paint your winter wheels purple?
All these talk about wheels made me horny. So I picked these up today from a local cat on Craigslist. $300 is a little high for just wheels but I need new tires for the spring anyway. 17x7 +40 offset going to be painted gloss black with Yokohama Parada Spec 2's in 215/40-17.

The brakes are now at the point where they aren't the weakest link. The snow tires I have on are now the part that causes the car to not stop as fast. I'll be able to get a full feel for the pads once I put my new summer tires on this weekend. I remember before with the oem summer tires and oem pads, the car would stop amazing (considering it was stock). But I did notice some brake fade the few times I had to make emergency stops on the highway and back roads. I live basically across the street from the MetroParks, so I see deer EVERY single day. I'd say about 5 time a month, I have to slam on my brakes to avoid the deer. I've actually hit a deer before, but I had stopped just early enough that I only hit the deer going a few mph. Not enough to cause any damage luckily!!! So in my eyes, brakes are a very crucial part of my car HAHA
Ya you're correct about XOWii racing going. I see Eric Meyer on the Participant list racing in the PTB class with his RX8. I'll definitely introduce myself! I don't see Freedom Autosports on the list, but they may not have filled out that part. I'll still look out for them.
I'm very very excited since this will be my first time on a real circuit race track!! I'm going to have to borrow a helmet, which I believe is free, I just have to give a deposit (Driver's license). It's going to be weird walking around in a t-shirt again!!! I won't want to come back to Ohio though haha!
Sorry to hear about Spicy, but yes, good thing you cancelled!!
Anyone interested in Enkei RPF1s? I'm going to be lowering my car further now that I'm running 15s and these won't fit anymore.
I believe they are 17x8, +42 offset and 5x114.3 bolt pattern, Silver. They have a lot of scratches around the lug nut holes from the socket spinning against the wheel (been on and off the car a lot), but not many other marks on them. Currently have mostly used up 225/40/17 Hoosier A6s on them. I'll let them go for $650. Posting here because I'm not willing to go through the hassle of shipping.
Pic, in case someone isn't familiar with the wheel:
