was mulling lots of wheel options over the long weekend but ended up pulling the trigger on a satin bronze 19-10/11 set with Cooper RS3 tires over the weekend. UPS delivery got moved up a day, so they will already be here tomorrow! Woot! Pics incoming!

So, has anyone else received their set yet? Looking for some real user reviews and PICS obviously (or it didn't happen).

I have the red diff lockout kit from BMR and I have diff whine (more like a whistle in my case) from about low 50s to low 60s mph.

Just get what's in my signature. With the Black Friday discounts and sales you can probably get everything for less than $2k- maybe slightly over your budget but worth it. :)

Still no certification for a 5.0 CAI kit?

Anybody know of a good shop that can install some full length stripes on my car? I'm planning on purchasing from Big Worm but do not want to tackle the install myself...if the cost is too much I might try it, but would much rather leave it to the pros. Assuming we survive these wildfires that...

Here's a question on the liquid graphite color. Depending on the image, they either look like a gloss silver (ie light) or in some actual shots on the cars it looks much much darker, closer to a gloss gunmetal (nearly black). What's the reality?

How much do tune revisions cost if one were to do some minor mods down the road like changing tire size, CAI, etc? (specifically Lund tunes)

thanks guys- for saving me a crap-ton of money! :D I think it's time to get my lady some new shoes...

So what's the consensus on half shafts on a N/A automatic car? Does upgrading to a sticky and wide tire setup (285/325) make the half shaft upgrade necessary. I'm not drag racing, but I may track the car in the next few months. What if I also add some simple bolt-on power upgrades (CAI+tune)...

Same here- Bronze and graphite on ingot silver car! :)

Are these powder coated or painted finish? Is there a warranty on the finish or just structural?

can't wait to hear your impressions! This may be the next and probably the last of the suspension mods for me...

Thanks! That's really good info. If the arms aren't seeing bending forces under normal use, then it's a non-issue as you state!

Yeah, exactly. I like actual content that teaches me something, not some jackass' trip through the Starbucks drive-thru. :D Savagegeese is also a really good channel for reviews with substance.

I'm glad somebody just said it. Literally some dude off the street pretending to be an authority on cars. I'm embarrassed to admit that I hate-watch most of these pretenders like Streetspeed, Vehicle Virgins, etc. :)

Is anyone else disturbed by how thin and fragile that stamped steel arm now looks with the bearings installed. It doesn't look structurally sound to me. Seems like that attachment point, and therefore the arm itself, should be replaced with something much beefier to handle the forces that...

And he traded it in after 5 days. He found paint damage that the dealer (rrright) didn't know about.

So, do you guys think the same thing would have happened with say, Pilot Super Sports at the same tire pressure?

So was Jeff just unlucky? or was what happened a result of poor decision-making with respect to tire selection, power upgrades etc? or was it lack of driver skill?
