Kinda off the topic but do you need to get your car aligned say if you get new rims and tires? I heard thats it recommended if you do get new rims cause im planning on purchasing those volks on the GB.

Preston, I go there all the time for practice, so I could pick them up for you if you want. Let me know and we can work something out.

yea i believe so...

i actually want to try another tire besides S02's and S03's.. I have S03's on them now... and don't feel like they're anything special.. I was looking for maybe Yokohama AVS's? Kumhos? Toyo FZ4's? maybe in particular...

I've had FZ4's before, and I think the S02's have a lot more grip.

S03's are probably grippier than the FZ4's also. I just remember the FZ4's having a really hard compound.
