I got my Dunlop Star Specs(autox wet) mounted on the Rota DPTS 255/40/17 and I got my Dunlop DZ101(Street) mounted on my BBS 235/45/17. I am still waiting on my slicks to come in.

I went over to Ohio to my cousins house who is build my motor. He builds motors on the side, mostly V8s and dirt track racing motors. He wanted to teach me and I wanted to learn.

Excellent looking build. Just one question - if you are putting all that money into everything on the car for auto-x and road race, why go with K-sports? Spend the money and go with something that matches the quality of the rest of your car. All the power and braking in the world means very little if the suspension isn't up to par.

No thanks Roland, I am not a fan of spacers!

The reason why I went with K-sports is because I wanted to try them and see how bad they are or if they are ok. I am using different spring rates on them. I just want to be different and if I dont like them then I am going to try something different. I also got a really good deal on them.
