I am wanting to repaint mine...thinking maybe a satin black and a new suspension...although I am having problems with the coolent system. I have to refill once sometimes 3 times daily. Just started overheating today.

    To answer your question yes I do tattoos.
    Ah haha...just making sure you were the same guy I was thinking of.

    Hope you get that coolant issue fixed...maybe a leaking line?

You can run the HRi's in that size, just as long as you don't plan on going no faster than 130mph. Unless you go for the ZRi's and you can go as fast as you want.

    BFG Sports, what I had on my lude. run 235's
    I saw 225/50R17...will a wider tire fit with no problems? My car tops out at ~145 mph, but I hardly see speeds like that ever. Should be alright yea?

    I don't rag my car out on a regular basis. I'm looking for All-Season tires...$100 each isn't bad at all. I saw a set of Continentals and Yokohamas that seemed pretty good.
