going for a test drive....wish me luck.

Is it actually a fact that a flat tire will cause the ECM to shut down the motor. Mine did and would not restart until i moved the flat tire about a hundred feet away. This was after i mounted the OEM rears. With the flat tire sitting next to the car it would still not start. It would fire up for a second then quit and gave me a "reduced power mode" or something to that effect. Cant remember what it was exactly. Moved the flat tire about 15 spaces down in the mall parking lot and Viola!
To prevent any further interesting experiences I would get the Forgeline brackets so the inner barrel has nothing stick out of it.

Good Luck

Limp mode, move flat tire 100 feet away to start and run the car. I had no idea. Good info!
