Nice! I love these tires on the GT. Just yesterday I had 2 of these tires put on the wife's BRZ. The stock size is 215/45-17 and the S04's have such a meatier tread width than the stock Michelins that it looks like I went up a tire size.

I was looking at your car and trying to figure out how your 18x8.5 +44s fit much more flush than my 18x8 +40s in the rear... The math is +2mm but visually looks like more. Then I remembered I'm comparing LGT to OBXT... the fake flares add the thickness (but no extra room).

 

You need to do this to your flares and make them real

Do you have a side picture? Curious how the balance looks with the nose not sticking out (but the rear still sticking out)

I took one but wasn't happy with it. I'll see if I can edit it and make it nice.

How are you liking the PP S-04 now that the mold release gunk has worn off?

 

Uber-grippy, right? :)

I actually haven't gotten the chance to drive hard on them yet. Either had a car full of stuff, people, or my alignment was still a little off. This weekend should change that though.

Finally drove my car pretty hard a couple times this past week. A couple of tight turns where I used to be able to make the tires make a little bit of noise they just gripped. I really need to get on track to see what they are really capable of.

Picture whoring. All of these were taken yesterday. A couple different spots. I really like the bridge spot. I'm going to continue messing with those ones in light room a little more just because there's so much to do!

I do really like those last 2 pics. At the bridge because there was some other traffic I took a friend with me and he drove my car and turning around and coming back when he came around the corner onto the bridge I realized just how perfect the front end is and I also stopped thinking about different wheels since I realized how good these work right now. :wub:

Your technique is improving every whoring session!

 

 

 

Awesome photos :) - I'm sure you have been, but watch a bunch of youtube tutorials in a photography style you like and apply those techniques and similar settings. Practice makes perfect better.

I haven't actually been watching as many youtube videos as I should be. Mostly its just clicking different tools in Lightroom and seeing what it does and figuring out how I can use it to my advantage.
