Well, good help is hard to find but it looks like you have it covered!!

I've been looking for set for a while but a) hard to find period and b) very hard to find without the CC disks.

The red calipers only come with iron discs. If you're looking for a red set you should ask around in the CS forum to see if anyone is looking to upgrade, that's what I did when I was looking to switch to the 2NH. I got the carbon rotors later.

I moved to the PSS and then the PS4S, and the each Michelin is better than the last. I am still pretty traction limited in the rear now that I am running the E30 tune, but it is world's better than the Contis

Agree but the new contis SC7 beats both PSS and PS4S in multiple tests. Thats why I wanna try them now.

The SC7 is a fantastic tire, but for how long. That's the one thing that the PS4S does better than the competition at the moment; it keeps more of its performance for longer. Who cares of awesome a tire is until 5K miles? We need great performance for a 15K mile duration, and that's what the SC7 has yet to prove.

I hope it destroys the PS4S so Michelin will hurry up and give us the PSS5.

Engine cover clearance is perfect. If I need to take the cover off, I will have to remove the strut brace but that is with any brace I guess will be installing Turner engine cover soon and there is a lot more. It’s going to be done to the car and I will keep you updated.

I finally got a set of 18” ZE40! They’ve been my absolute dream wheels for a while now, alongside TE37. I’m so happy to have them on my car, especially in such a great spec!

Very nice, both wheels and car! Looks like 265 in the front, how about on the rear? Are you running spacers with them?

Looks great, looks solid! I don't like the ones which have a bolt/hinge near the shock mount, there is no way to secure those over time but you don't have that problem.

Who makes it or is it custom?

Thank you! Yes, I’m running a squared setup. 265 35 18 all around. No spacers. I plan on getting 265 40 18 for the rear soon.
