and if anyone ever wonders for reference - yes you can fit 4 wheels and 4 tires (not mated) in the car. But its a very tight fit, and really not that fun to drive that way

I thought the stock eight were 22 without tires? I weigh them in FL one time and they weighed 22 without tires

Well I only post the info I can find - never actually did it myself.......its close enough imo, 1-2 lb variation can be expected (difference in scales, etc)

Just realized who you are!!

I was the young kid in the black evo viii that one day at PRP. Remember I was having trouble hitting 3rd gear and you went on to tell me how a lot of viii's experience that problem, etc etc...

My Dad was racing his CTS-V as well...

And on your website...is this Ryan Stout's car?
