The ride looks really good man. ive been debating on adding more camber to mine. The only thing stopping me is the amount of miles I put on my car im trying to get the most out of my tires.

I was a little hesitant too...I drive about 3-400 miles a week. I didn't want anything extreme however this was the minimum I could do to be able to tuck the wheels. The biggest part of wear on tires is your toe so as long as you can keep your toe correct you should be fine.

Hit me up when you get to town. We'll all go grab dinner or something.

What % tint do you have and do you get much hassle in GA with it?

It's 17 all the way around. The front windshield is tinted 35% and a 5% strip. I've been pulled over twice and the cop on the first time gave me a warning, the second time he was cool about it and let me go. Basically just traffic stops to make sure I'm not a criminal. LOL

That's similar to what I run on my LS and SC except I do 5% and 2.5%. It's good that they let you off. My friend got a ticket by the same cop twice for a tinted windshield and it was expensive.

I always heard they were strict about tint in Georgia too.

Had a challenging week with the car. Had one rear wheel that had a small bend on the inner barrel, 1 tire had a huge titty on the side wall and another tire had a gash in the sidewall. Fortunately I purchased road hazard when I bought my tires on Discount Tire so they are sending me replacement tires for free. Still haven't gotten a chance to install my DRLs that XenonDepot sent me. Very excited about them just haven't had time to wire them up. Should have some additional goodies by the end of the year.

Here's some pics by Brownman88. Enjoy!
