Would you be able to replicate that AT fitting and line, I'd like to do the same, either note what you used or if you could make it again I'd pay plus time?

Thanks in advance! Car is looking great.

These fittings are crimp fit so you need a special machine but I can get that done.

Birg,
Those AN fittings aren’t quick release right?
You track the car? If so, you have to dump it literally every session so it may be a huge pita if you gotta wrench it off and it’s like 400 degrees.
The original quick fit hoses obviously aren’t as pretty, but very functional. Just FYI.

They are not quick release but I don't track the car. That is a good thing to keep in mind though!

This looks freaking killer man! Assuming with your wheel set-up, you will be tracking it?

To be honest I just like the meaty look and have been on the fence about tracking it. I might be selling this wheel setup shortly.

Tried my buddy's TE37's on the car just for fun. 18x9.5 +45 and they DO clear the front calipers with about the same amount of clearance as my Forgelines. With the proper RCF offset TE37 you would have more clearance because that extra offset to the outside would move the caliper into the drop center of the wheel. I did spin this one with the car in the air and it didn't hit the wheel weights or anything either.

Was wondering about the stick on weights. Thanks for clarifying. Hoping to run 305/30/18 square next season.

As much as I liked the 18 inch Forgelines, I don't plan on tracking the car anytime soon and they just looked too small for the car from most angles. Found a great deal on some WedsSport SA15-R's and I feel like they fit the car amazingly perfect!

Changed up the wheels again and added the Tom's rear diffuser and side spats. Finally happy with how she looks!
