They are quiet and have no tracking or tramlining issues. So far, so good!
The front and rear sidewalls are extremely short. Sometimes when I walk out to my car at night it looks like it has NO tires on it! One thing I like is that they are closer to the stock tire diameter, so it changes the gearing back closer to stock. The car actually feels a tiny bit quicker than it did with the 255/35-20 & 285/30-20s (which are about 1" taller than stock).
I did have to lower the car a bit more to reduce the gap. This makes entering & leaving driveways quite a spectacle. There are some places I just can't go with this car. Here is the driveway to my office: the bumper clears by about 1/2".

Seriously... before I get "into" the engine, I definitely want to finish my MR2 project. The 4-AGE engine is basically finished

The Mister should cure my "need for speed." I only drive the GS about 60 miles a week, so how fast do I really need to go?
I'll get a few engine pics. I need one more driver to do the motion shots. My dad will be in town this weekend, I'm sure he'll oblige! (Dad loves the V8!)

Seriously... before I get "into" the engine, I definitely want to finish my MR2 project. The 4-AGE engine is basically finished
and has pistons, rods, valves, cams, a T-28 ball bearing, air/water intercooler, Electromotive TEC-II, individual fogger "wet" nitrous sysem, limited slip, flywheel, clutch, etc. I just ordered D2 coilovers for it so I can slam it - the fenders need to be pulled a bit to cover the huge 18" wheels and I can't get the ride height right with the engine & transmission out of the car.
