We got Lisa's Forgeline TA3P Bandit Tribute Snowflake wheels and tires today for her 2000 WS6, WOW! Is all we can say. They look absolutely killer combining the popular mesh look with the very recognizable Snowflake look from the Bandit days. These are 19 X 9 1/2 and 19 X 11. Tires are 275 35 19 and 305 30 19 Michilen Pilot Sport 2s.
Lisa and I LOVE this car. It has been her "Date Car" since new and only goes out on special days. Nice 4th gens are quickly getting rare enough from age and abuse, but you just don't see many Triple Black, Convertible, WS6, (6) Speed cars. This is the one car I SWORE I would never modify, but that is really hard for me! But 7 years later, and 40K miles, and all that stock stuff is out the window. Hotchkis has lowering springs (needs them so bad), along with some rear trailing arms, strut brace, and some custom valved Bilstien shocks coming. Wilwood is helping us design a 14" (6) piston Superlite front, 14" (4) piston Superlite rear brake kit, with red calipers of coarse that will look smoking hot!
Power wise, It will be getting some Magnaflow exhaust, Stainless Works Headers, and probably a cam and ProCharger in search of 450+ RWHP. A Moser rear and some 3.73 gears will contain the power.
We did the reds stripes a few years ago, were now inserting the seats and door panels in Red Ultra Sweade, and throwing some red inserts in the carpet.
The plan is to do a little Autocrossing and just play with it keeping it a toy. The build will be one thing at a time keeping the car running and driving with minimum down time.
I will post some Updates as we go. Some may not consider these car Pro Touring, but these cars were BORN Pro Touring!
