Post New wheels and tires

New 17" technology wheels and Falken 451's.
man what a difference in the handling this made!
I am really impressed with these tires so far in both the wet and the dry, only about a hundred or so miles on them and they feel better with every mile.
This has made the Bilstein/eibach coil over set-up come alive, next to install the M030/weltmeister sway bars to round off the suspension for this year.

Nice car and nice song, but the combination almost made me want to hurl!

Did you film that at the place where the Boxster was parked in the Porsche ad?

Glad you enjoyed it, 225/45/17 and 255/40/17
And yes it was along the sea to sky where the Boxster ad was done, I went to 7-11 for a coffee, it's not my fault they have good coffee and they happen to be a 100 mile round trip <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />
