Sc4 Build
Hello! Im new to the forum (not to cars) so I figured I would start with a build thread of my car. I bought it a fw months back (1/17/14), Its a one owner car, super clean inside and out with 120,xxx miles. This is not my daily driver so I can afford to take my time with it.
excuse the bad cell pictures

I defiantly have not taken enough pictures so I’ll just throw up what I have.
As soon as I got it I ordered wheels and tires.
Got them mounted and on the car along with a set of BC Coilovers

Clears the LS calipers with plenty of room. The rear is still factory sc400 at this point, but there is a ton of room.

Yes ad no, they are not stratched but they are undersized for the wheel size. 225 front 245 rear but the Federals run a size big usually, so they are closer to a standard 235 / 255. I will be going with bigger rears next time.
