These look great!
Besides the minor difference in weight, what advantage does the 9.5" wheel have over the 10", besides tire selection. My assumption is the strut clearance?
Probably takes longer to warm up. It won't actually make your car run cooler because once it's up to temp. its open and out of the equation. If you have temp issues then you need to revaluate the radiator and fans or other cooling components.

Thanks.
Well, I regret to say but this wheel is not for me. I spend to much time driving in the city and and the shape of the wheel, especially the flat parts are not very conducive to one handed steering.

There's probably a fuel cut before that 7500 rpm redline so you can't get up there during acceleration.
It's probably set a bit lower than redline to ensure you don't spin it up there either by momentum by depressing the clutch while still on the gas.
So some initial thoughts.
1. The factory wheel also does not have any padding underneath. It too is skin glued\stitched directly to the wheel. The difference is the rubber of the factory wheel is substantially more playable.
2. The contouring of this aftermarket wheel is something to get used...
Turbocharged engines have higher intake air temperatures than naturally aspirated engines. Higher octane fuels are more resistant to predetonation from less than ideal conditions. Running a higher octane fuel in the turbocharged engine allows the computer to advance the timing to produce more...
I am not a fan of carbon fiber, IMHO, its cold and uninviting. GT350R wheel with red stitching and red stripe is nice, but I dont want to be washing my wheel to maintain it. Too many people complain they go bad and all at different rates. My guess is body chemistry has a lot to do with the...

Hey. I got the wheel and its a nice wheel all around. The material is some kind of leather(it doesnt smell like it). However, it feels very nice. Very grippy compared to the factory wheel. Its also smooth, in the non-perf areas, unlike the factory wheel which has a...
You can't bleed brakes with abs modulator as you would a system without. That device cannot be allowed to be dry. If it goes dry you may need to put the system into a special mode to allow it to be bleed properly.
So ideally. While swapping the calipers, do it quickly to avoid losing fluid...
