No prob...I always wondered what the pattern looked like when at a roll.... Plus, you can fit those nice Stoptech's with a 5mm spacer....

Exel's for the win!!!!!!!!!!! I gotta get mine on soon. Still debating on 35 or 40 series tire. I want to reduce as much gap as possible with h-sports. Not sure what to do.
