Philadelphia's Classiest Drunkards
My car feels dangerously fast in the turns getting off the highway exit ramps. Marc knows how she drove with the old setup, and this feels much looser. Can't wait for the alignment, and readjusting the sway bar to softest! Anyone wanna trade their 25 for a 27 4 way?

Here is my take on the wheel thing...do with it what you will. I have 18x10 +25. I think they are a real nice size for the X's. 265's will fit fine with no rolling in the rear. However, I got a "wide" 265 and needed to roll the rears. Not a big deal, and now I can run any tire I want, even 275.
If I had to do again, I would still get 18's. 19's are just unecessary. Once lowered, it doesn't make that much of a difference. 18x10 +25 is about the max you can go without rolling fenders, and that still depends on the tires you run. That's how close it is.
As for suspension, coilovers are actually easier to install than springs since you don't need a special tool and can do yourself. They are technically more involved, but certainly not unmanigable. (Like most of my work, Todd installed them.) And with coilovers, you will notice them right away. The car is so much more stable going through corners. I haven't given them a real test yet at a competition event, but will do so soon I hope. With that said, you can survive on the stock suspension until you feel the need to upgrade.
Sup Ralph. You know Eric and Mark personally, or just through being at the shop? I hang out with Eric almost every weekend. And I was just talking to Marc on Saturday. I only use the shop when I need air tools!
I was discussing with Eric about renting the shop out by hour. It now serves as a cave for the multiple FDs to hibernate!

there were 6 agressors, it was my friends b-day party.. I just saw someone sucker punch my friend from behind, so I slammed the guy, while doing so I was getting punched and kicked in the back of the head, so I turn around and choke slam the other guy and I was still getting kicked and punched by someone else.. I probably took the biggest beating. My buddy who took the initial sucker punch got a broken eye socket so I am glad I took that guy off his hands asap. The birthday boy left with 7 stiched and they also hit his sister and broke her nose..There really was not even a fight as these guys just took everyone offf guard with cheap shots, we were just having a good time until then..
I'll try to get some pics up lol
