Craig,

Thanks, Bob Burton Bob, I can't answer for Craig regarding price, site update, etc..but, yes, the 3.2 is the Patrick Motorsports-overhauled one that came out of your blue car. I miss the motor/yellow car already! -duc |

I just wanted to point out a correction, as I'd hate for someone to buy tires in the wrong size because of me -->
That car looks GREAT. Kinda looks like the blue one. What size and aspect ratio are the tires. I really like them. Bob Bob, the tires are 205/40-16s (Toyo). Blue car had 215/40-16s (BF Goodrich) - very close, though the 205s look/fit better, IMHO. That said, I think tire brands have a lot to do with it, too; I've had Dunlop, Nitto, BF Goodrich, and Toyo - the Toyos look/fit best, in my opinion (they definitely give the most clearance). Also with 205s, there's no need to roll the lips or stretch the fenders, with PLENTY of clearance (that's w/ the yellow car, at least; I understand other people have had different experiences). -duc **OOPS! I ERRONEOUSLY STATED 205/50 PREVIOUSLY ON THE YELLOW CAR'S TIRES; THEY ARE ACTUALLY 205/40. I did have 205/50 at one point but didn't like the look as much.** |

I want to point out something. The blue car has the rear wheel wells made flat (or rolled). Crag confirmed that the yellow car is not. The wheels are 7 Inch x 16inch Fuchs. This is just in case anyone thinks they can fit 7” Fuchs on the back with out rolling the fender. You will need the right tire.
