None of them will pass. I'm pretty sure it's the angle of the bars that cause them not to pass, and probably the size of the bolts used to secure it to the car.

The angle on the bars are not in the proper angle to give it ultimate support/strength. Since they are made to be used on the S without sacrificing too many interior pieces and to also allow the softtop to go up and down without any problems.

It's so much easier to drive in America than it is in Asian countries or European countries for that matter. There's sooooooo much room here to maneuver around compared to over there.

Ukrain is horrible. There are so many drivers and the streets were never design to handle that many people driving. Plus it dosent help that everyone there drives like an *******.

I'll be needing new tires. (well not really, but new wheels which allow me to go wider, I might as well take advantage of it now that I'm boosted also)

265/40/17 - 225/45/17

or should i go with 275/40/17?? LOL Fronts I want to stick with a 225, since you all know that I'm slammed and I do plan on running Spoon calipers in the future.

I was on tire rack and 1010tires and here seems to be little options. (1010tires is very expensive by the way)

265/40/17
- Kumho Ecsta MX (KU15)
- Falken FK-452
- Toyo Proxes T1R

275/40ZR17
- Kumho Ecsta MX (KU15)
- Falken FK-452

Anyone have any experience with any of these tires? I need it to be decent in the rain also due to the car being a daily driver.

Thats true. Its much much harder to drive in Europe and daily driving requires skills. Its no wonder most of the top race car drivers are from europe. Their daily routine is a track event every time

Thats where I got all my sick nasty skill from lol. Actually to tell you the truth most of my driving style and technique comes from my dad. I would allways study the way he drove in Ukraine. The only thing I didnt learn from him is heal-toe.

Driving on the Ring itself would be worth the trip to Germany.

Rent a Porsche or M3 and you're in business.

You can apply for a international drivers license at the DMV or AAA i think. I drove in Germany with just my CA drivers license.
