I'd say it's my first time......unless my thousands of hours of gran Turismo with a wheel count!! Seriously though, if anyone plays gt5 pm me your Psn lol

Thanks lol

Back on topic tho, thinking about buying a square setup that still looks good. Anyone have any good looking 18 inch square setups?

TE37SL black edition

im running 18x10 +30 and 18x11 +18

Is anyone running a 19 inch square setup, I know that'd stress the engine more but I'd prefor the 19 inch look over 18s.

I've tracked mine with Motul RBF600 brake fluid and Carbotech XP8 brake pads (with my base brakes). I've only tracked it once so far and this setup was ok, it was my first time as well. Since you have a manual, you should probably upgrade the clutch fluid as well. Good luck and have fun!
