I'm on H&R coilovers. I had wheel gap with the original stretched out tires the wheels came with. Now my wheels are flush with the wheel well! I am such a happy camper tonight. :happyanim:

Got new summer tires on! Michelin Pilot Super Sports. I had "rubber bands" on the wheels before so with the new tires, it makes my ride a whole lot more comfortable! They are rubbing a bit against the fender so this weekend I will roll the fenders. I also ordered hub centric rings to eliminate that vibration which annoy the heck out of me! 25 days til SoWo! #sowoprep
are those 18x8.5?
My front wheels are 18x8.5 and the rear are 18x9.5

Got my cts catback installed to complete the turboback. Also had a brake fluid flush and replaced the fuel filter.
The catback is amazing. I love it. Not as loud as I was expecting, which isn't a bad thing at all. It definitely sounds a lot better than it did with just the downpipe. It's a lot deeper and has a bit of a grumble when I engine brake now. It's also a lot more sporty sounding and not so 4 cyl angry bees sounding.
I've never been 100% satisfied with my exhaust with just the downpipe. My last car had a catless downpipe with an aftermarket muffler and it was loud and droned like a son of a bitch, so I've always been a little leery towards adding a muffler on this car. Now I know I should have done it sooner lol

This was sitting on my doorstep when I got home from work today...
Knowing it's sitting in my garage and I can't install it yet is absolutely killing me!
Awesome! Uni?

How's the fitment on the whole TBE system? My CTS DP was a HUGE pain.
Also, "angry bees" is a great description! I think mine sounds okay, but definitely not deep enough. Getting Stage 2'd in a couple weeks, though, so CBE will need to wait

Brought it in to dealership after popping/creaking developed when turning wheel. They installed new strut mounts and bearings under warranty AND discovered that my water pump was leaking. New water pump under warranty as well- supposedly like a 4-5th revised version.
Warrantied my suspension bits even though I have aftermarket struts/springs! Cool dealership win.

I didn't install it so I don't know how that went, but it's definitely a little crooked. I'll have to see what I can do about that this weekend.
I had to go for another drive just to hear the exhaust some more. It's sooo much better now. It is pretty loud when you get on it on the highway, but otherwise the sound is pretty reasonable. Only a little drone at cruising speeds. It's so weird listening to my car now. I've had just the cts DP with a stock muffler for maybe a year and a half, but the noise from the dp just doesn't compare to the full tbe.
