ETA on the car is May 11th. I will be taking the car to the wheel manufacturer to get it measured for wheels that week.

The religious break-in followers are going to dislike this but I don't keep it light on the gas during break-in lol. At the same time, I don't abuse the car either.
During break-in, I just make sure I: 1) always allow the engine to reach normal operating temp. (verify w/ fluid temps); 2) vary the engine speed/rpms; 3) work through the gears; 4) bed-in the brakes; 5) put the tires through a few heat cycles before exceeding 100 mph); and 6) avoid the kick-down function/WOT for first 1,000 or so miles.
Have enjoyed some strong motors after utilizing this approach.
