Coming back to this - any update?

I've done a ton of wheels with custom offsets over the years and have some PTSD from wheels that didn't fit as promised by the wheel manufacturers. Very well known brands. If flipray has found the secret sauce, I might pull the trigger. Those huge rear tires are essentially the same OD as the...

Are you able to share alignment specs? I saw you mentioned slight rub up front - do you think at stock ride height and with more camber that issue would go away?

flipray has just won the thread!! Wow that's superb!

OP moved on to a GT350 . . .

I will say that the Car and Driver article has caused my G80 M3 and Giulia QF owning friends to be VERY defensive about their cars. It's comical how seriously they take negative comments about their cars, especially the BMW people.

Excellent, thank you for posting!

The Mach 1s are definitely "better" but they are a lot more money and, from people I know who have owned them both, not as rowdy and fun as the Bosses. And you can swap the TR3160 into the Boss pretty easily (which is what I would do if I ever bought 3rd Boss). Anyway, sorry for the thread hijack!

Have you considered a Boss 302? I've owned 2 and they are about the most engaging and rowdy cars you could ever imagine. Shockingly good handling if you put better tires and even better with some minor (cheap) suspension work. And that engine is incredible! Power everywhere, revs hard to...

Awesome. It looks like you were able to tuck the mufflers up higher than others I've seen. Can you please take more pictures from low behind the car? Like from maybe a 6 inches off the ground?

Bold and underlined. Golly. Just trying to help. Good luck.

Have you considered 275/35/19 front and 285/35/19 rear? Would open up a lot of options, including the DWS06+ and AS4. 285 is acceptable on an 11" wheel per the specs.

Excellent! I hope they make a great sounding one that doesn't hang down like the Corsa.

Am I the only one being taunted by AWE? Whenever I get an email from them like right now, I think it's an announcement for the 5BW exhaust that they are supposedly developing. Unfortunately, today's email was just a general one. But everyone keep signing up for updates for our cars and maybe...

Awesome car congratulations! Those things are on my radar, too, and that engine is very robust actually. Keep blogging about your experiences with it please.

Something doesn't seem right. I own a 5BW 6sp and have driven a 4BW 6sp and the 4BW blew me away with how precise and sharp it was and had plenty of power. Yes, I enjoy spinning the tires on my 5BW at 90 in 3rd but the 4BW felt superb and like a pointier, sharper version of the 5. For...

I am looking forward to hearing the results of the SPL arms!

Zoiks! Geez I guess maybe there is no way to get around all the systems reporting things.

Haha to both of you guys! When this data sharing was revealed, I went ahead and physically disconnected the plug in the trunk as other people had figured out. I wouldn't mind plugging it back in but only if I know 100% they aren't sharing/selling my data again.

I don't have the app and even though I turned off Smart Driver when I took delivery, the car turned it back on approximately a month later without letting me know.
