Thanks!

Oooooooh hold on to your seat buddy boy!

I have 3 sets of wheels . The Work equips are getting refinished so the tires off the equips are stretch because I drift the equips. So instead of using my Hoosiers on the street I mounted my street tires "stretched" on the TE37 sl. My RPF1s stay as track 100% and are not touched. Since I am daily driving the car for the next 2 weeks. It only makes sense duhhhhh.

My Road RACE track set
enkie Rpf1
18x10
275 40 18 Nitto NT01 square

My autocross/street set up
Volk TE37SL
18x11 315 30 18 hoosiers R6
18x10. 295-35-18 Hoosier R6

My drift/ street set up
Work Equips.
18x11 275-35-18 Nankang Ns2
18x10 255-35-18 Nankang Ns2

EQUIPS are getting stripped lips getting polished and stars powdercoated gold.
TE37SL staying Hyper Blue since it was a limited color.
Rpf1 the forever true and performing haha stay matte black.

Enkei PF01-Evo 18x10.5 +12 255/35 tires. Had a local Firestone align the car since they had an inground rack and was only running 1.8* rear camber & 1.5* front. It's nothing crazy for fitment, but just enough to look nice.
