Ha, yeah, it was getting bad hauling it down from 75 on the highway but I’ve been busy and anything I can put off until it’s not 10 degrees in my garage I put off.

Oh no arguing at all that the RS3s are far far superior. I was initially looking at the Dunlop star specs, but when I saw the evo2s on Amazon prime for only $115 a tire…figured it was a steal. Anything is an upgrade over the 2050s, so I’m sure I’ll be pretty happy still.

its amazing how garbage the motor mounts are! First time I had the motor hit the firewall it scared the crap out of me haha. I think the first part I got for this was an 80duro rear motor mount…just that and it was night and day :tup:

Summers have been on the truck and the M5 since March 25th or so. Jumped the gun a bit.

I am doing some plasti dipping this weekend I think so I may put them on this weekend in the driveway since I can borrow a torque wrench now.

Anyone have suggestions on how many cans to coat rims with black and glossifier?
