Good work, I was looking for you at Washtenaw today, didn't know if you had class on Thursdays.

Only on sundays starting next week. When i get here riding right ill swing by bmw to show u and alden on my lunch.

Ohhhhh yeah! Should be minty by then!

So I'm not sure on summer tires. I'm thinkin 205/50R15 for size on a 15x7 rim. I plan on doin some autox so any ideas? I'm feeling star specs.

My winter tires should be in Tuesday or Wednesday so I'm takin my wheels in to work to dismount the tires and get. Them cleaned up for the new snows and be put on the car. Snapped a pic after loading them up!

Ehh I'm soooo pumped to see this bitch with some new shoes! I almost already want it back haha

They should clean up nice. I'm excited to man.

It's going to be a blast to drive with some proper sized tires!

I'm excited to see this!

Should look kinda cool with the BMW wheels. I like these for summer enkei j speeds they re released um.

So I got my inner and outer drivers side tie rods done. Also found out I need a passenger side wheel bearing and hub... :-( I also got a chance to clean up my bottle caps! I snapped a pic


Now all I need is the hub cause I got the bearing in today then I'll mount the tires, lower the suspension and get here aligned next week hopefully!

Josh, where are you gonna get your car aligned?
