Thanks! I'd like to go a little bit lower but my front upper control arms are constantly hitting the shock tower. These are 19x9.5 +22 front with 225/35/19 Achilles tires (bang for your buck), and 19x11 +25 in the rear with 245/35/19. 1.1.1 are 18's, 1.1.2 = 19's, and 1.1.3 = 20's for the LM style.

Awww okay okay i see! HAHAH everybody has the banging problem but we just deal with it because the looks are worth it LOL! Yeah i want to run 255's because i want more boost this spring, and have to be able to hook! !!
i plan on getting the ES6's when they open up the pre-order list.
i wish they would come out in 10.5 and not just 11's. with 11's on a 255/35 i might rub and will have no choice but to pull out the fender a bit.
I opened up a thread about the ES6's if there is anything you would like to contribute to it...just sayin.

Thats crazy how varrstoen does not have any to offer...wow!!!
Try searching on ebay, if you cant find just center caps....message some of the sellers who are selling the wheels and ask them if they have a set of center caps they could sell you! you never know.

Lets see some pictures of the plum colored breaks and some videos of the new parts being put to use when that intake comes in

Thanks man, I will send him an email right now. I contacted Circuit Motorsports a few months ago and bought some center caps from them. When I recieced them, they were the wrong size. They were actually smaller. And he said that they do not make the center caps for the ES model.

I currently do have a video, but I will record one when I get the SRT shipment in. And I will take some more photos on a better camera instead of using my iPhone.
