Great, what color did you go with?
I ordered the Silver... I thought...but when I opened up the box I swear it was something else....But I will keep them - they took about 6 weeks. SO I figure I will just go with it. I believe it was NOT Silver - I did not even take them out of the box. I just peaked and I think they are black w/yellow stitching.

Display MoreI use the Alpha Variable and very happy with it.
You can listen to some of my track day videos with it wide open in Race Mode here: Summit Point, WV Track Day (Sun, Apr 24th 2016, 8:00am - 8:00pm)
A video of the button we configured from the remote so you can control it from the dashboard. When it is shut completely it is very quiet anywhere. I love the sound it has in the middle "performance mode" as its refereed to.
Love this... got to go visit TheRock soon about mines...This months is a CRAZY busy month!

When I talked with Schroth they said all 3 versions of the Rallye belts are DOT approved. Came with paperwork and red button.
I got my Schroth in... I will be replacing my PRP ones soon.

sorry all I have been gone for a while....This was so much fun! @TheRock drove his AZZ off ... I had to repeat a seen in the movie Bad Boys with Will Smith "From now on, that's how you drive".
Thanks great pics! -
Sorry I have been gone for 9 days (Vacation). Sorry if I am late on this... But the part I think your talking about is / was used for the Pontiac Solstice and did nothing for our SS.

Display MoreI would like to add that this type of wheel widening used to be very popular in the motorcycle markets. Back years ago when we did not have wider wheels available, we had to make them ourselves. We'd widen stock wheels using these same techniques. So long as the prep machine work is performed in a precision manner, and the welding processes performed properly (as this is certainly not a novice welding or machining job)...the results will be as dead-on as a one-piece wheel, with little if any runout. We swore by them, safe and smooth at speeds in the 180-200 MPH range. This is also how most beadlock wheels are made, with the outer bead ring/bead concentrically welded to the main wheel body.
Tricky work, but done right, it's awesome! Here's an example of what we used to call a "double weld", with wider wheel lips welded onto both sides of the stock wheel. I built (machined/welded) this wheel about 20 years ago, still have it on an old Kawasaki GPz:
Very nice Bill! And to see it holds up after 20yrs... It's a credible alternative to a great look to that special or factory wheel that a person might like.

Yes I installed one with remote oil filter using 10AN braided lines.
Engine temp is way low and hugs the 180 thermostat in most conditions now. I have never seen it run this cool consistently.
I hung mine maybe 8 inches in front of the rad on an angle using the bar below the headlights and the chin spoiler bar up front near the grill. 4 bar mount brackets and its solid and not blocking the radiator. I installed a lower scoop with SS grill to scoop air onto both the cooler and radiator for supplemental cooling.
Nice work!!

Just wanted to say hey and officially introduce myself. I'm a pharmacist near Charlotte NC. I've had the SS for a little over a month and even with a short stay in the pit for headlight recall and such, I've put over 2k on her even with the less than ideal riding weather we've had of late. So far I've added the alpha CAI, 1320 header, Alpha adjustable exhaust, led headlights, headlight bypass switch, underbrow LEDs, prp seats, assault pedal covers, dead pedal cover, and passenger foot plate. Got tricled under glow in the way and combining it with an xkchrome controller vs their own Bluetooth controller. The DW thinks I've spent more on it since I bought it than I paid for it lol. It's a 2016 base grey but the previous owner upgraded all components to SL Simply bc he wanted the grey. Ive ridden MCs for 20 years and still own a roadglide ultra but I can honestly say at 40yo this is the most pure driving experience I've had out side of a true race build. It's not the fastest. It's no the quickest. It doesn't ride the best. But when he sum of all aspects is added up it is by far my fav vehicle. Anyhow, I've been watching and reading posts on both forums for over a month now and figured I'd introduce myself (I posted this over there too before things went south) It's a pleasure to meet you all and I look forward to riding together one day. Thank you to the admin that created this forum as a drama free hangout for like minded adults!. I have three kids and if I want the kind of childish balogna from "over there" I'll hang around my seven year old little girl and her friends.
Take care and thanks again for all the info on both sites. It was invaluable as my boys and i turned some wrenches on the new toy.
Welcome to the SS Family Forum...
