Ride height looks ROW to me. Stay away from hard launches unless you have about $5K for trans work.

What is the best tranny-safe method for launching these things?

Fully engage the clutch before you stand on it. Makes for poor 0-whatever times, but these aren't drag machines anyway.

Where in NJ are you ?

I have a set of 996 hollow spokes with brand new Kuhmo tires for sale. 1900 obo. no dings, rash, or wobble. I actually only used them once for about 15 minutes to road test the car, no BS.
