Elliott, those are exceptional pictures. I especially like the 2nd pic. The color of the sunlight reflecting off the dark paint along with the glisten in the center of the rear wheel make that a stunning photograph.

How do you like the K&N air filters? Did you notice any performance gains or increases in MPG after installing them? Also, have you experienced any probs with MAF sensors?

I notice your tires are the BF Goodrich G-Force Sports. How are you enjoying those tires? I unfortunately have a nail in my rear passenger side tire. With over 10,000 miles, I have to replace both tires. Thus, I acquired the BF Goodrich G-Force Sports.

How's the handling, grip in wet weather, and life of the tire?

The K&N is fine...no considerable difference to be honest. MPG is still a solid 23mpg around town if i'm not driving too aggresively and like 32 on the highway. My MAF sensor is fine but I did just have to replace my O2 sensor behind my catalytic converter...or in front...not sure where it is...anyway thats probably irrelevant to my filter.

You would be correct and after 12,000 of driving I absolutely love them. They are an incredibly solid and well designed tire. I got all 4 installed at Costco for a little over 400 installed which is incredible in my opinion for Z rated tires...and there is nothing compromised in my opinion. Life of the tire has been sufficient. I have 12,000 on the rears (unrotated) and it is about a couple millimeters from the legal wear bar. This is keeping in mind I drive half and half passive/aggresive on pretty nice Tennessee roads. The front are still in adequate condition, with plenty left to go, and I'm about to throw them on the rears. Grip in wet conditions is predictable but not too bad. What you would expect from a Z rated tire at this width, but not too bad at all.
