brian1225,
Was that you we saw on Sunday July 30th pulling out of the gas station around 12pm? I think hollywood saw you too and was waving to you. We were on Wagner heading towards 405 South.

Ya that was me. Would have loved to go for the ride with u guys. Next time. Hey I ordered the 10mm spacers for my car but they are still on backorder. But 12mm is not going to give it a try. I am running the 285's i am going to roll the fenders. What do u think? Am i going to have any problems?
Nevermind... I posted a reply here yesterday but decided I don't know what the heck I'm talking about when it comes to rubbing, offsets, and tire sizes.
I'll leave it to the experts.

1. You know you want to buy the G-Meter, you're hooked.
2. You need to reduce that picture in your sig!

Definitely yes. Have you checked out Official 5-Series Straight-Line Performance Thread and the Official G-Meter Testing Thread? There are lots of good times on these treads.
