+1 on wheel size and offset.

It was on 38 and 6th street at the Savway. I know the F1 was susposed to be in Lombard today, and it was making its way through the suburbs. I don't know where it was headed after that.

Sorry all you guys who were expecting the road car McLaren F1. I would have rather seen that myself. Its definetly in my top 3 favorite cars.

Damn I am nearby. Wish I would have known.

Its nice you only have to wait a few weeks, I have been waiting for one wheel since December. Also, I would reccomend going with 255/35-18 on those babies if you want to get a little more meat on em'. I initially had 18 inch SP1's and the 255's fit real nice.

I have spent a good portion of time reading about tire tech and what not.

Just the same, I have read and concluded that F1 tires are at the pinnacle of tire tech and are ultimately the stiffest.

The reason I jumped so off topic is, would you look at the size of those damn sidewalls? Im still baffled how tire engineers can make those tire so stiff....and can't imagine how fast F1 cars would be if they lessened the sidewalls to low profile degrees and applied the same tech to them.

Otherwise, awesome pics and nice Evo.
