Welcome to the addiction. There will be some coming down from PA. We have a group leaving from Columbus on Wednesday and some more on Thursday if you want to hook up with them.
sometimes i just wish the wheels werent so close to the brake caliper. they scratch the wheels from time to time just a tiny bit on the inside of the barrel, thats how close im talking... i guess thats my fault for buying 15's, i just wanted them as light as possible :wink:
Light wheels are very nice. One other issue is that you can't go with a BBK if you want. For me the stock brakes are pretty darned good.
yaa no big brake kit for me anytime soon but like you im fine with the stock brakes. i might upgrade the rotors and pads but i dont need anything crazy
There is a whole crew of miscreants leaving Philly / South NJ. We're heading down on Mon... look forward to seeing you there.
ahh i would but i cant miss that much school and work :frown5: im headed down on thursday though, hopefully see you all there!
