Couple of shots from this past weekend....full detail....

-Oil Change
-new R1Concept Rotors
-Akeneebo Euro pads
-Switched from Vredestein to Dueler HP's ....hard decision but I am chewing through Sessantas a set a year....$$$$$$.....plus the Dueler's look way more aggressive in terms of how they wrap around the 215's....
-Complete Detail...from polishing the supersprint exhaust to the engine bay...clay bar..was...polish....etc...
-was getting p492/492...2ndary...air pump...pump works...replaced valve and vac line.....hopefully codes go away! LOL...
-some winter scratched were hit with coded paint and wet sanded....the magic of a true detail artist..at Endless Details in orange CT!
....and a bunch of other odds and ends......

.....on to the next.....

Hows the HP's? i am getting the same rims 215 but ferric was wondering what kind of summer tires i should get with them

RichiRich 03-22-2011 03:57 PM

Hey Yii....I love the vredestein.....with my lowering and negative camber....along with the composite make up of the Vredesteins....well, I chew through them in the rear.....I do like the way the Duelers wrap around the wheel....very beefy, especially the 315....in the rear.

Yeah i heard about that in alot of members that bought them in the group buy. Performance was great just longevity wasn't. Seen alot of members use HP's and it just may be in my future aswell :D.
