I have 285/30 up front and 305/30 out back on 20x10 and 20x11 wheels. Iām running Conti Pro Contact DWS06 all around. Iām happy with the setup although I do wish the contact patch on the Contis was slightly wider. Still get great traction. A huge upgrade from the Goodyearās the car came with.
I really didnāt think the MT-82 would last very long behind the stage 1 Whipple. My S550 was M6 and I enjoyed it. But central Texas traffic with a clutch was brutal. So far so good, compared to the A10 in the Camaroā¦.well, the Ford version has its charms.
Shadow Black definitely has what looks like a little bit of purple flake in the paint, so blue pearl would be correct. Itās only visible up close, at certain angles, and when the car is swirl free and cleanā¦which is almost never.
Mine is a daily driven. Aside from the 15mpg I see on average - you donāt know itās supercharged until you get on it. Thereās no mistaking it at that point. Crazy HP on the street is perfect. 1st gear is useless, Iām waiting on my new wheels to arrive so that I can put some good tires out...
Iām thoroughly confused about this one. My car was a job 1 automatic without start/stop and the window sticker has the line for the gas guzzler tax, but no charge.
Has anybody installed RTR Tech 5 wheels in bronze? Iām wanting a staggered set for my Shadow Black GT and canāt decide on graphite or bronze. I have not seen many pictures of the bronze wheels and am concerned they may be too bright.
@Mikestang24 @LoWeLL216 Is there any trick when lowering the new module into the trunk? My concern is that the double sided tape on the new module will catch early and itāll be difficult to āshiftā it over to align the bolt holes.
I had to travel last week and am barely getting around to...
My very firstā¦
Then this oneā¦.
Then a long break to raise kidsā¦.
And after she was declared totaled (but oddly enough back on the road with a new owner!)
My Whippled girl!
I have not had a chance to install mine yet, but the condition is outstanding. A little paint correction and it was ready to go. And itās black!
Since it has the trunk module attached already, itās just a matter of a direct swap. A little double sided tape along the edge and you are set.
Any new car is a financial mistake. You just purchased, and most of us financed, a depreciating asset. Options and packages are just added cost to your purchase and somehow you convince yourself that you NEED them- driving up the price. I had a C7 I bought new that started to give me problems at...
I installed the low profile jacking rails last weekend. I had the brackets on my car, but was able to get the bolt to catch on the driverās side with an impact gun. The bracket was under some tension and I had to push up and to the center of the car to get it to catch. The passenger side went on...
