Sorry not looking to hijack the thread but are these Aerie wheels and if so what color finish is that? Been searching for the right shade of bronze/gold for myself and I think this might be it.

That's very weird. Pretty sure I have a similar mileage usage estimate. It could be location based, I know they still aren't fully rolled out in every state. I'd try giving them a call to confirm, they were very helpful and easy to work with when I called them to get set up. Hopefully they...

I use Open Road Insurance. Felt like a good middle ground between Hagerty and Grundy in terms of price/coverage. No nonsense about when/where you can drive it. It just can't be your daily driver and needs to be stored in a garage.

Gotcha. Yea I'm running 12mm spacers right now so I'll probably use the same offset adjustments, maybe just 10mm front. These are the style I was looking at (though I don't think I can justify the HRE price tag), looking at them now I'm not sure the lip is even large enough to cause an issue.

Considering a set of two piece wheels with a deeper outer lip but I'm unsure how that style affects offset. Any wheel fitment gurus available to explain? Can I just order OEM size/fitment with an additional -12mm offset or do I need to take the lip width into account?

Lakeside in Autumn 🍁 A car that makes ordinary days and regular local roads feel special is one to hang on to.

Any downside to just using gold heat reflective tape do you think?

The material you used, was it from one of those flexible accordion-style connecting tubes or straight galvanized steel/aluminum pieces? I'm guessing it was the later.

I don't think it's fair to generalize the entirety of Emira owners or even this just this forum based on the few critical comments you've received (most from just a few repeat users or the hardcore JUBU supporters). Most people seem to just be asking honest questions about your offerings...

How are you feeling about your set up after a few more weeks of driving it? Any issues rubbing against the CV boot?

Will you be able to code out CELs on the new ECU for cars that have aftermarket catless headers? If so I'm guessing that will be one of the options when choosing a tune/map.

Definitely interested. Piggyback tunes make me nervous despite most users having solid results from the jb4. Would love a true bench flash with the increased redline and fuel optimization. Agree with me73 though, some more specific details would be very welcome.

What kind of paint did you use? Nail polish?
