Oh E85 is extremely accessible here. Is it true that the cost will all even out, since it’s only like $2 a gallon? So it’s practical for daily driving?
More or less. Check with your tuner before you buy any hardware because they may want bigger injectors than what come in the stage 2 kit. Keep smog compatibility in mind, too, if you’re worried about that. If you buy the tuner kit (with no injectors) you won’t get the magic EO sticker.

Moffetts said it best! Get the complete smog legal kit with tuner. You will get the EO sticker making you smog legal, so no worries later and easy to sell the car. Even a dealer will purchase, but only with an eo sticker.

Stage 2 Whipple is ordered. I didn't see any big advantages with the Gen 5, especially since I wasn't planning on doing a 1200HP build down the road, so I went with the Gen 4. I'm very excited. Now I'm just worried About my Wheels, They're 20x10" in the rear, and I have 285/35/20, I'm going to put 295/35/20 on them. It's a shame because I just bought those wheels a few weeks ago. :facepalm:

I'd say check out the Nitto 555Rii but don't think they make that width in that sizing. Think 305 is the closest width. Same with Toyo r888r.

I know there’s a lot of debate whether 305s should be used on 10” wide wheels. Some people say it’s not a good idea. What do you think?

10" is too narrow imo for 305. I have 10" on my fronts with 285. Much wider on that wheel would not be optimal.

I sure hope my 285s are a bit better than the 255s that we’re in it. It’s gripping incredibly around corners. I have Falken Azenis FK510s on it. I do wish I would have gotten 11’s in the rear though.

Ya 11s would have opened up 305 and 315 options.
