Irish, I just posted on the post pics thread about ur rubbing issue and then I see it on here, lol also forgot to mention on the other thread if you go wit smaller tires you would b fine like 205/40 to get some stretch cause I don't think you would get a stretch on 215/35 But you might even clear with out stretch on 215/35

Ya, i cut it right out. No more rubbing on bumps! Yayyyyy

@jona, i know you have a more aggressive wheel set up than i do and you are lower, when you are turning, how does your wheel not catch your fender? When i was cruising through the parking garage last night to do a shoot when i was turning really hard, my tire would catch the top of my fender... Just a rub.

here is a teaser from last night.

Jona, whats going on inside the tC? VIP the interior. Some classy fabric wrap for the headliner and pillars. Maybe some custom seat covers? VIP curtains?

Now that my friend, is an amazing suggestion. lol Now let's see how much i'd have to invest in that in order for me to make that happen....and it doesn't sound cheap -____-


BROKE COLLEGE STUDENT FTMFW!!! If ya' feel me, HOLLLA! lol...cuz i'm a broke mo'fcuka! lol

But redoing interior and changing top grill sounds like a plan! lol
