Wow just found this and thanks guys!!! I was very surprised and thankful of the website and their assistance in our venture! Spring is coming and I am sure we will all meet up once again soon enough!

As for updates... we bumped the performance to 615/659 at the wheels and I am mulling over a 2.38 lower for a bit higher boost when we get the Street Tune in in a few weeks...

I missed this as I was at the Auto Show most of the week!

Thanks all.... new tires today at Leggat in Burlington. It took them 5 + hours to get them installed and that was AFTER they watched the video that was posted, read the Michelin Update on ZP Installation, and also let the tires sit in the sun to expand for a few hours. They promised the rims would not be damaged whatsoever and held true to their word.

I was told that, at one point, three of them were all working on one tire to get the bead to catch lol. Soooo glad I negotiated the 'all in' price before purchase.

Ya you never know if or how much they are exagerating but these tires seem to be their own challenge for so many dealers....beside...$2400 Cdn plus $70 mail in rebate is ok with me considering it is done and the worry of whether there would be any rim damage is now out of the way.
