it may be normal for the 2011 and 2012, but its not right. Just getting my ducks in a row for the class action lawsuit being filed for the issues. mine has been in and out of the shop for months, and I begged for the new top to be installed, but they are mule headed.

This is what I traded for the Camaro. Not NEARLY as much fun as the Camaro, but it was fun... Straight 6. Kind of looks like an old lady's car now that I think about it.

I pulled out...

I mean I pulled the car out of the garage to let it run for a bit and spin it around so I can work on detailing the other side. Lots of buffing and polishing, detailed and polished the wheels, painted the calipers, gill stripes, interior detailing. Been a fun winter so far, just can't wait to drive it again!!!

Car looks great. Glad you didn't go with black wheels with that color. Watch out for rubbing on your front Nittos with the 275-40-20's and the ZL1 offset. Feel the inner fender well. It is very sharp and if you hit a hard dip or push the car in Autocross you may rub or tear the side wall.

My clearance looks the same as yours when I had the Nittos in 275-40-20. I cut the sidewall while Autocrossing.

Thank you!
What wheels are on your car? Do you have a side view of it?
They're awesome!

Thanks for the heads up. There seems to be enough clearance lock to lock but I could see where an extreme move could cause contact. I will keep an eye on it. I could always roll the fender if I need the additional space.

Damn it! I promised myself when I bought the car that the stock wheels are great & I wasn't going to spend on replacing them.
Now I want M228 wheels in Gun Metal staggered 20x9 front & 20x10 rear.

It's your fault.
