Yea 45° is a little off. The factory 265's on mine were to me, way over stretched.. The factory look is what I'm not into. I like having a sidewall in my tires, plus the bigger footprint is a good thing

I turned the factory's into racing slicks in just 3 months. I'm signed up for SCCA solo in March so I needed tires to pass inspection to race.
But yes, S04's. 265 front and 305 rear

Ordered new TPMS sensors, 305 30and 255 35 Hankook's that should be in next week. My Motordyne M370 intake came earlier the week. Will be ordering Kics lug nuts for the M310's next week. Now all that has to happen is cooperative weather.

I will add some 'clean' pictures when we get a break in the weather.

My white brother (who saved a parking place for me at the Pacers game a couple weeks back) is now stalking me. This was at the gym this morning.
