For the same tyres that are on our cars, Bridgestone potenzas

Blairs tyres near my place at Narellan.....


BTW- Nice car:thumbsup: Will look heaps better with the tint done....

Mine are 19's but the bridgee dealer quoted me $900 for 1 told him thanks but no thanks.

Still waiting for the other Kumho to arrive from interstate , tyre shop could only get hold of one yesterday.

That is one sweet ride mate. 18 months and I will have my own (p plater laws). Looking for rims like that for my sv6. That has got to be the best colour out at the moment.
Have fun with her. :)

Had my new catback exhaust installed today and a tune to go with it plus some air box mods.

Was originally going for an otrcai but the LS3 autos have the trans oil cooler right where the intake would sit, it was going to be a pita to try and move it elsewhere.

Done a dyno run before the tune and exhaust and had a measly 215rwkw.

After the exhaust tune and airbox mods it was a respectable 246rwkw.

Great work with the upgrade:thumbsup: how does she sound now ?

Also those results are quite dissapointing before the tune, that equates to
280 FWKW's not the 317 you should have had...

and now with 246RWKW that equates to 319 FWKW.......

did they tune it to 98 octane also ?
