Re: Great weather and my freshly detailed CS!

Nice looking car! I suspect there are some nice country roads in IA to engage in some "spirited" driving.

What tires are those and how do you like them?

Yes, there are some good roads, but nothing like Wisconsin! And then of course, after driving the Dragon and Cherrohala (sp?) nothing compares except the track.

The tires are Toyo T1R's. They are OK; not being asymmetric, initial turn-in isnt as sharp, so I will probably try something else next time. But, they are quiet and have a great tread rating.

I was just going to ask... are they Porsche recommended?

They are Champion Sport Springs, which are the same as HR.

Chris, it looks amazing thanks to many of your supplies! I love the citrus wash for prep and the sealant before applying a few coats of carnauba wax for good measure

Re: Great weather and my freshly detailed CS!

Gorgeous. 5mm spacers would make it look just a bit better. I can not wait till I get the Eibach springs on I already purchased.

I have 5mm OEM spacers on the front and 15mm in the rear...I wouldnt want to do much more than that.
