New Rims and tires installed yesterday.. Perfect backspacing with this setup. Tires sit perfectly flush with the body. What a better look than the original classic rims. I was not a fan of them because they were the same color as the body. They looked washed out imo.. Went with a 305 on the rear. Rims are 11.5" rear and 9" front.

They are the same as stock except painted black with yellow plus and minus to match my PDK GT4 shift **** which has yellow script. Purely asthetic. I painted my steering wheel trim black to get rid of reflection and the black shift paddles matches it better in my opinion. Part numberSKU718G2PA

The install is easy, and no, they don't really change the feel. It's same mechanism, just with different paddles.

No, if you want magnetic you need to go with the JQWerks Madtrace paddles. Fantastic pieces of kit, I might ad.

I considered those but that clicking noise would drive me nuts after a while.

Honestly, I don't even notice the sound anymore. From a driving experience standpoint it's been one of my favorite upgrades so far. The tactile feeling is vastly improved.

Here is a different option, but personally I like having the dividers and the handles make it easy to pull the whole thing out quickly when I need to put larger stuff in there (suitcase, etc.):

This is the 17 gallon version? Where did you find the red lid version? Only see yellow at Lowes, HD, etc.

Thanks!

Edit: found it https://www.homedepot.com/p/HDX-17-G...6226/317211754

17 gal for $11 at Home Depot.

The red lid makes it pop.
