But I don't understand why they would use narrower rear tires than stock, it's going to compound an already bad situation especially with 800 hp on tap?!?
Yup that's my blue beast in the photo. Check out my photos in the garage.
What color is yours?

yeah totally agree... not sure why they went with a narrower tire... not like we are lacking in spin-power.


if i go with the SS package, i'll be getting my rims powder coated in the flat black anthracite they have as an option to the actual wheels... looks bloddy sinister.


mine is a race red with the PP stripes in white.


love it.


must have the SS package with matte white stripes and matte black wheels... gorgeous!
