      You are one of the mixed reviews that pops up about these tires then.

      I believe any car can be what you want it to be with time, money, hard work and effort. This car will be put together accordingly. There are also alot of stanced cars putting down power as well. You can have best of both worlds.

      The stance scene is not for everybody I know that.

      Exactly! I don't get why people hate stanced cars so much. I mean there is already two probes that have done it and they look great! Shaun and Erik's probe.

        I don't understand why you care what they think

        It's your car and your money as long as you enjoy what you doing and what the car looks like in the end

        f..k these hating azz b..tches




        when their opinion start to matter then tell them to donated to your car fund

          I'm not a huge fan of stretched tires. But I like the stance look.

            Definitely looking forward to this build. I like the JNC wheels, but those aodhan are beauties. I've actually looked at a few styles of those aodhan wheels, let me know what you think about the quality when you get them.

            As for the Nankangs (I've used NS-2), I've used them for over 5 years now and they're great daily tires - good in the wet and dry, never seen snow. If you try to launch it hard, they're definitely not super sticky but they do the job for a road car. I personally love them... enough that I bought a set of NS-2R for some test and tune nights.

              This build looks like it is going to come together very well. I can't wait to see some updates. Keep up the good work.

                  That's why I'm scared of car shows now. People always got something negative to say. I'll just learn to ignore it.

                  I don't think it will be too stretched I believe but hopefully the stance will be great when I'm done.

                  Yeah I would of kept the jnc but decided to go wider lol. I was searching for a very long time before I decided on the nankang ns 20s. It was all mixed reviews but I bit the bullet and bought them. Thank you for your review on them I hope mine are just as great.

                  Side note - wheels came in this morning I'm picking them up from ups as I have to sign and I wouldn't have been home when they dropped them off. Also I'm buying my coilovers today!

                    Welcome to my life. Going to shows with a Probe can be hard if you are thin skinned. I have watched as judges have scored my car low and other cars like Mustangs that looked like like they were just drug out of some back woods junkyard high. I have heard the laughter and crude comments at every show I have been to. No matter what show I have been too I have never fit in with it. hot rodders, racers, oldies, muscle cars, lowriders, mini truckers, imports, and every other type of car I stand alone.

                    Even with all that there has always been at least one person who has came up to me to talk about my Probe. That is the person I go to the shows to meet. I show for myself and that one lone soul out there that will enjoy seeing my car there.

                      It's sad how cruel and negative people can be. They expect everyone to like what they like and build a car just like there's. I know there is hope because Shaun and Erik gets alot of compliments on there cars and so many other probe owners do too I believe.

                      I all I want to do is build a one of a kind probe.

                                I went 19's considered 18's but I think 19's fit the wheel well better once you lower a car
