SS/TC's don't have leather seats. They are fabric, kinda like neoprene.

Man that is why you guys got Brembo's, you lost the cool wing and seats, I personally woulda forked the cash... I'm just counting down the days til I get my Volk Racing Time Attack TE37's w/red lip for my baby, wrap em in some 245-45-18 BF Goodrich KDW meats, be able to put down the power she's puttering away in rubber spray sessions.

Injen Cai is in the very near future...

ALERT!!!

TIRE SIZE IS TOO BIG. You will rub the bottom of your shocks. Take that sidewall down to a 40.

I will have to see, I don't want to throw off the speedo so we see... The rims are offset wide, we see how it looks when I test the fit of the rim inside while it's on the chassis lift.

I also need to get an exhaust installed while I'm doing that, get the nitrous run out, co2 intercooler, and sport glow kit, all to be done in December when my shop expects to have the complete set ready to go. Taking long time to locate 5 matching rims... :/

I'm trying out Sage in VB, they're still opening up, but they've done some pretty tight Imports, I'm waiting to see more though, they're too in between shop moves to really have alot of offerings.

Nothing against Sage, but I promise they don't have the experience with this platform and HPT that my reccomendation does.

They do great in imports, and they in turn also prefer them.

Do yourself a favor and go to www.1010tires.com. Use their tire calculator. You will see my wisdom. The width is going to cause a height issue unless you compensate and go with a smaller sidewall. Go to a 40, not 45. Sticking with a 45 will have your speedo be wrong. You will be going faster than the speedo says. That's asking for a ticket. Not to mention, the wrong size could lead to brake failure.

The goal here, as I said earlier, is to pay attention to the rotational circumference.
