I ran 10.5 on all four with Nitto NT05's and was a great setup but on interstates they would track all over the road. Also,, am I the only one required to run a front plate but isn't. No way I'm drilling holes in that bumper***

yes they do track on the highway, but I have started getting used to it now and can anticipate it. I thought about not running a front plate, but would just rather not have the hassle. also knowing how my local PD operates, I know I would get pulled over for it..... a lot. plus the holes are on the under side of the bumper, so they cant be seen

I'll be at the LS1tech meet so you'll probably see me looking at your car for awhile if you go to the meet.

Love the car, was switching the gauges difficult? It's something that I think makes the car look really cool. Also that bumper makes it look aggressive, beautiful car overall.

Thanks! The gauges were a little tricky because as far as I know the top dash pad can not be removed without it shattering. You have to sneak it out leaving the upper dash pad in place.

I always liked the corvette gauges, but I see it looks great on your car. Something I was possibly thinking about doing.

Both sets fit like a glove. I wont be running either but it was fun to try them out
