    Wheel width and Tire size for a GTS?

    I have 275/30/19 fronts and the 335/30/20 rears in the PS2's. They definitely don't look like ****. The 335/30/20 really fills up the rear gap. I also have the CCW'w in a 20 x 12.5" so I could get the wider 3 1/2" lip in the back...

    Perception Vipers can't corner

    Re: Perception Vipers can\'t corner On top of what Chuck said, you hear about so many Vipers getting wrecked going around a corner. People assume it's because the cars don't corner well when in fact it's because they have so much torque you have to ease off the gas when turning.

    Cooling Problems...

    Let me know if you want to hook up some day for a drive. Maybe meet for a burger over at that new In-and-Out on Williams Field and the 202. Its only about 2 miles from my house. That sounds like fun. In and Out burger is my favorite.

    Cooling Problems...

    I don't know if the diagnosis is correct but I was quoted around the same for replacing the water pump. Supposedly it's about 4 hours of labor. Honestly though, these cars run hot and I wouldn't be surprised if it still ran hot after replacing the water pump. I'm definitely not an expert but if...

    VOTE on your favorite HRE WHEEL. PLEASE!

    I'm a 5 spoke chrome wheel kind of guy. The 5 spokes always look tougher and more like a muscle car to me which is the look I like. Look at Synfull's pics he put up in a thread last week or in my photo gallery.

    Let's have a little contest!

    Re: Let\'s have a little contest! You have every reason to be upset. It's not hard to believe that even a very qualified, reputable tuner could have a problem like this from time to time. What's hard to believe is that they feel it's OK to put you on the back burner after you have already paid...

    Problem With Brake Dust On Wheels

    Get some EBC green brake pads and you won't have much dust to worry about. I use the smaller duster and wax also.

    Is a black viper a violation of the Golden Rule????

    No, but I use a air compressor. I also use it to dust off the car in between washes.

    Is a black viper a violation of the Golden Rule????

    I think black is the best color on any car but I am too anal and the dust and swirl marks drive me crazy. I spent half my life trying to keep my back Mustang looking good. http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p21/dyeguy_bucket/mustangebay002.jpg

    Just installed bats overlays

    Yeah, I'm sure there are always more things to do but at 550 HP I don't really feel the need right now to do much more. I'm trying not to put more money into the car than I can get back out someday. I've done that a few times before. It feels nice being the one that got a car that someone else...

    Just installed bats overlays

    About what I thought I would get for response. Some likethem, some don't. I'm trying to figure out if I like them or not. I might take the blue ones off and put the light smoke ones on instead. I like the way the blue looks in normal light. The one picture I have where they look bright blue was...

    Just installed bats overlays

    I doubt it. They are not that noticeable or dark. I drove with the dark smoke tints on my Mustang for over a year and never got pulled over for that. They were too busy pulling me over for other things. (License plate cover, window tint, your car is nicer than mine etc.) lol

    My new wheels..HRE 897R,,WOW!

    It's the lack of tire dressing that's making those tires look small. Just kidding. It does look like the gaps are big but I'm used to my 19" and 20" filling up the gap a little more.

    VECII vs Flashing PCM

    Who can flash your Viper? Is it just Dodge dealership Viper techs and Viper tuners?

    Is radiator stop leak bad for your car?

    OK, that's what I figured. I don't mind replacing it, but it's just such a small leak that I thought I might be able to get away with a cheap fix. Thanks for the advice.

    Is radiator stop leak bad for your car?

    I have a small coolant leak coming from my water pump seal. Was wondering if anyone had any info on the pros and cons of using a stop leak product. Thanks in advance.

    First month of ownership.

    If you need a great mechanic, Eddie Martin at Bill Luke Dodge is the best Viper tech in the area. Very knowledgeable and a fellow Viper owner too. Congrats on the car.

    Putting viper in summer storage

    If you thought it was hot in the Viper when it was 80 degrees you must be hating life today in Phoenix-97 degrees!

    Where Were All the Vipers??????

    I see an average of 1 per week here in Phoenix. The weirdest time was when I saw my neighbor pull into his garage with a black/silver stripe 06' vert about 3 days after I got my 97' GTS. He traded in his Ferrari for it. When I asked him why, he said he remembered how much fun Vipers were when he...

    Got stopped doing 80 in a 55 zone

    Wow, now we can all justify all the crap we put on our cars to our wives. "Honey I'll need this to get out of a ticket someday". That's a great story. I had a cop that was doing a speed trap pull me over because he thought my window tint was too dark. After he checked it and realized it was...
