I knoooow. Did you ever do that trick to push the headlight out more? I can't remember what you said you were going to do. That's basically what I need to do after I order two OEM gaskets.

Nope never took them back out again (I hate doing that...). Add washers to the prong that sits inside the fender slot.

A 225/50/16 will be around the same height as a stock SRT tire.

Haha I was wondering if you'd recognize them. Yea I'm not too worried about the speed sensor, as in, not at all worried. At most it'd be off a mph or two. That, among other reasons ... lol

I think those Rota Slipstreams will look very nice on your White SRT-4. Are those TSW's heavier than your stock wheels?

The guys doing my rims ran into a problem with the clear. It bubbled up while baking them since they couldn't totally prep the polished lip to accept the clear. They're going to cut the price down to $150 for everything. That makes me feel better, since they've had my rims for about 2 months now lol. I can't wait to get these bad boys on the car.

If I could find the time to redrill-n-fill those TSW's, I'd buy them off of you in a second, Nate.
