That's impressive that you got that setup to be so close to the GT2 specs.

Yeah, I know. I was just attempting to be as flippant as I could.

Maybe you could ask them to install an 'unlike' button for you...

I was raised in a different generation; the whole "Like" thing on social media is IMO a joke and a waste of time.

Absolutely - could not agree more...

But, now that you have mentioned it, everyone will like everything you post...

I see you are up to two likes now; soon it will be MANY...

pfbz - I love the way your car looks and those wheels are perfect for your setup. Very nicely done!

Thanks... The Apex wheels are IMHO perfect for the car, and I like the wider wheels and 315/245 widths they accomodate. The fact that they are very reasonably priced, great reputation for track robustness, and fairly light is more icing on the cake.

Thanks. It handles even better. Those GTC5 tires are truly amazing. Fronts are easy to fit but the rears are a bitch as they are 27.1" tall. Great seeing you and Paul last Friday!

Default Do I need suspension too?

Guys, if desired, can I just put in lowering springs without replacing suspension? My end goal is simply to lower the car.
