    Can You Identify These Wheels?

    They are BBS forged magnesium racing wheels. They are not meant for street use and are made to race for one season. Street use is out of the question because these wheels experience stress cracks. I tried to buy a set for my Viper and the BBS guys at PRI emphatically said no to street use...

    305's will throw a bunch of debris onto the paint and sandblast your car. Use the 3M clear tape to protect that side panel. Brad

    Pilot sports VS. Pilot Sports 2? which one.

    Run flats and handling? What an oxymoron... Run flats are too heavy and hurt handling on any car. The Michelin PS are a good all around tire that will give you some very predictable break away characteristics. Their wear factor is harder and the tire will last longer than a PS2. If you...

    What to use to Wax Viper?

    I dumped my Zaino, Meguiar's and everything else under the sun for Adam's Polishes products... www.adamspolishes.com I got tired of spending an entire day to detailing my 10 year old daily driven '96 GTS Coupe. Adam's products are easier to use and give a deeper luster than anything that I...

    New! Fully Adjustable Proportional Valve Kit NonABS
