Damn feel like my balt never gives me a break, but its finally going...... finally

Put on my powergrid adjustable end links this weekend when the new shoes went on.... the f u c k i n clunking is finally gone.... so now i have new rotated mounts, new cabs and new end links. I think each contributed to the clunking .... so pumped right now lol

Highly recommend the powergrids... they make my old moogs look frail. oh yea and i just pushed my rear brake lines back a couple mm.... no more noise/rubbing coming from the tires anymore. fitment is mint right now... they fit like a glove.

Still tweeking some kinks, rear wheel is rubbing a bit on the brake line so need to adjust it and push it a couple mm back. These bad boys are 9.5" wide so it's a tight squeeze. My fenders are rolled and fronts slightly pulled... Tires are stretched.... Kinda like the look but may go a little wider next set of tires. Lip is pretty crazy.

Absolutely love them. Had my brother driving up and down the block while I was diagnosing the sound/rubbing and they flow amazing with the car. Car looks like it's floating on the road when it gets moving.

might have to grab me some power grids... although my moogs have been doing me well so far (knock on wood)

You need some more tire width on the fronts (if you can fit it). The role over your going to have on any kind of corner is going to be nuts.

like i said earlier... highly recommend them. They are so much beefier then the moogs. My moogs were shot after <2 years. Hope these last longer.

And yea next season I'm gonna go wider. stretching 225/40s right now... I got space to go 235/40s... probably what I'm going with... it'll fill the wheel well a touch more also

Thanks bro

Oh and thanks to builtss for the suggestion regarding the trunk. Been rocking my wingless black trunk for the past week. He is right, it does look a lot more sleek. I am going that route for now. So I am now looking for a new black wingless trunk. I will probably fix my CF one here soon and either throw it on to change it up from time to time or just sell it.
