Thanks for all the comments. I changed the disks as soon as I could for the twisties. Now Im waiting to need new tires to get the 18" staggered spyders. Am thinking to change the RFT for normal all weather but havent decided yet.

2004 sc430 mercury silver, K&N filter insert, duraflex front lip, soarer winged lion emblem in front.
