Scott's car sure was fun to drive though... But I know what you mean by not feeling like it is your own. Gotta do some things to your car to make it feel like yours. Tint, the headunit, and the euro style side markers did it enough for me with the Porsche... Though I still want to powder coat the wheels, I don't know if 200 dollars will ever be lying around begging to be spent.
I wish that was the only problem I ran into $200 for powder coating, dude you can do that

Dude:

320/month car payment
260/month gas
100/month insurance

+ 600 dollars for brake pads and a leaking coolant bottle fix
+ Vegas coming up the end of this month
+ School coming up at the end of this month (so less job time)
+ Metal Gear Solid and Soul Caliber calling my name
+ Life's little unexpected crap
+ Paying for the shuttle ride down to St Jeezie

Priorities man, priorities. I don't NEED black wheels, and they form a very distant 5th or 6th for crap to buy if I ever have extra money lying around. A) Soul Caliber, B) Metal Gear Solid, C) Ski rack, D) Sub and amp, E) Season pass for... probably Brighton, F) Powder coat wheels.

Debt = Bad
Paying off debt = Good

Yeah, it definitely would be the hotness... Really it's mostly school starting and the trip to Vegas that are holding me back. I really was planning on it until my coolant bottle decided to take a ****... literally

Not working for a month right after you bought a new car really sucks the money out of you .
Still trying to catch up from May and going on 2 Week long trips and spending $Thousands when I didn't really have money to spend and didn't have a Job for a month.

Eric I don't think there is anything wrong with spacers on the Evos. If you install them right and get the right ones they are fine. Most of the Cars cars at the track run them.
I would prefer not running spacers, but sometimes you need to. I know that the Perfect setup for my car is a Enkie RPF1 18x10.5 with a +15 offset sits perfect no spacers need front or rear. Just look up offsets and setups on the aggressive wheel thread and see for your car. I would run a 18x9.5 with a +25 to +30 offset for a aggressive wheel for you. some others run a higher offset but you need spacers for those. If I had a stock Evo (body wise ) I would like to have a set of RPF1's in 17x10 with a stretched 245 or 255/40 tire. Nice and aggressive for 17'S

I ran 1" spacer on my front wheels on the track, with extended studs and lugs there were no problems at all. That isn't saying much, since I didn't run them for more than a few events.

American Window Tint in Layton is the ****! By far the best tint job I've ever had. Darren is WAY good. Lifetime warranty on the tint and it's so close to the edge of the window, it'll bring a tear to your eye! 801 547 0263 His name is Darren. Tell him Evan with the blue evo sent you over. His prices are good.
