Thanks again to all. Pics will definitely be posted when the car arrives. Now I need to decide what to do about the tires. Do I keep the cup 2s on the car or replace them with another run flat or non run flat? Tracking is still an option but by far the car will be used mostly on the street. I know it's a shift in topic but any help is appreciated.

I don't daily driver the car and have left cup 2s on - great grip and traction but I only take the car out when it is dry (and above 55F).....

How many miles do you expect to get out of them?

I'm not sure. I truly have no idea how long they last with street use.
