Exact. Except the tires were purchased through Summit Racing.

First of all, sick car!

Secondly, you should never daily drive a car that fast. If it's that fast it needs a full roll cage. If you have a full roll cage you MUST wear a helmet and a harness at all times when you're in the vehicle.

TTT for new pictures on the first post.

Side note, car is for sale at the right price only. $32K relatively firm. Can discuss a few different options to get the price a tad lower. $32K includes the upcoming dyno session this Thursday. Car is fully dialed in on the AEM EMS from hours upon hours of street tuning by Strictly Modified. The dyno is just to put up numbers and dial in fourth gear a bit more since 4th on the street is SCARY!

Car is only for sale for personal reasons. I love it. Hate to see it go. GTR in future down the road.

seriously wide wheels for those Hoosiers. They look like they fit well too. wild.

Congrats on stepping up to the GTR. It'll run 9's and most certainly be a DD.

Have to be honest, I never would have paired a 10" wide wheel with a 245/45/17 tire. Credit goes to Emery @ STM for that combo. The Hoosier DR is far wider than a normal 245/45/17 tire. It fills out every last inch of these 10" wide RPF1's. As you said, it is absolutely "wild".

GTR will be a true 9 second daily driver. I look forward to that. :-)
