Matt, the look is awesome and I love the new wheels. But, since you got carbon fiber fenders and the wheels are black, you outta get HRE's black carbon fiber center cap. Well, it's not 100% CF, but it's a really nice CF print.

Hate to fool you, but those are just the roller wheels.

I'm having the Forgelines re-hooped. The car will look almost exactly the same as before, save for a few touches here and there.

How wide are you going with the hoops? And are you changing the color/finish or still gonna keep them polished?

I'm having the wheels built to 10.5 inches will see how they work. If I'm not happy, I will probably try Rob's hella flush approach and go to an 11" with a 295.

I might also change the color of the centers. Not sure yet...

Getting closer. We shot paint on a few of the pieces yesterday. I also got the wheels back. One side rubs a little, the other is fine. I'm going to raise the car a little and throw some additional camber in it. So far things look to be an improvement after a little test drive.

I'm looking at testing in a couple weeks. We'll get it painted this coming week and probably spend the first several days of the following week color sanding and polishing it back up so that I will be ready to get a new round of rock chips and cone rash! I'll definitely let you know when and where I'm headed out to.

So... Are we looking at 315's on there right now?

Yes sir. A 295 or a 305 would fit much better, but don't want to change tire brands at the moment. I may very well drop down in size in the front and try a set of BFG Rivals in the future, but won't know for sure until I put some laps on the new setup and see how well it works within its current constraints.
