    Any chance you'd be willing to sell a set of wheels/tires separately? Specifically, I'd be interested in the set with the Toyo RA1's.

    Appreciate the bump and the testimonial.

    The one school I ran with the car was the Tarheel BMW North Course event last July. It was particularly fun going up the North Course cut-through and down Roller Coaster through HogPen.
    With the Toyo RA1s on the car, after making the right turn going up the hill, except for a shift to 4th, I could keep it floored all the way up to the top. Brake for the entry into Roller Coaster and then foot to the floor except for a shift to 4th and a quick brake going into HogPen.
    With that Turner Motorsports J-stock suspension, the car handles great.
