Just got them on! Had to order some new stud (lugs)
Bought them from a fellow RL, great transaction.

AG Ruger Mesh 8.5 and 11s.

Ride height still a bit high from the car being up with suspension suspended for a few days.

As a experience, it actually helped driveability and performance. I notice the LB GT wing reduced my top speed and top end acceleration. But at high speeds, they pushed my car down and added much more traction so now I can take corners very steady and turn faster. For the extended 25 mm front fenders and bigger tires, they gave me a better lap times as well. It all depends how you do it. That's why street GT3RS 911's including every Cup cars have upgraded extended flares and adding bigger tires to 255/265's in the front with uprights and GT spoilers, they all upgrade from overall packages. Who never drooled over RWB videos on youtube ? I'm talking about this week lol

At least yours is crazy everywhere, which makes it work if that suits your taste, and following yiurbuild thread, the work was well done.

The other car with regular body and that wheel and tire setup is just ridiculous, and not in a good way.
