Car looks great! You'll have lots of fun on the RS-4s

I should have my wheels and tires by the end of the week. Two weeks till I get my car... I did receive my ZHP shifter today, so at least I have something to hold

Super! I've had RS4's on my Style 108 wheels since the beginning of the year. Great track day tire, pretty good but not great auto cross tire. Not quite up to par with the RE71s and Rival 1.5s for auto cross, but they've worn like a champ. They've got >20 autocross events, 3 track days at Daytona, 2 track days on Sebring Club course, 5 track days on Sebring full course approximately 5K miles of driving and there's still about 40% tread left.
The new wheels will be my auto cross set which is why they got the RE71s for the front to help a bit with the push. Once I get the Style 108s refinished, they'll be my DD set. For track days the rear set of Style 108s will be my fronts and the Flow Ones rears will stay on the rear and I'll have a square set of 265/35 RS4s.

Forgot to post these. Both set of tires are on identical, 275/45/r18 Maxxis RC-1 tires. The ones on the APEX PS-7 are newer. The PS-7 is also 1/2" wider.

6.2lbs lighter per corner. Not bad.
