Your wheels: for the road and for your hands have set the bar.

Well done

LOL, navigating road hazards is second nature to me. I've been driving dumped since '95...back when I could barely get my Accord over a speedbump without taking the exhaust off

No rubbing with regular driving, even hard turns, etc. I run a slightly smaller tire to avoid this (235/30). I just have to slow down for driveways, and do a full-lock turn.

Looking VERY good! Love the steering wheel. And... everything else.

So is that the trick? Full lock turns when going through dips and up driveways?

I have no issues on dips. I"m fine when I drive the car around. I don't think you want to turn your wheel full lock when you approach a dip on the freeway...just a hunch

Thanks Clay. That's a CLS63 cluster, courtesy of MBEnzNL. I've had it a while now. Just never posted pics of it

Yeah, all 5 wheels look great....

I saw they were Toyos, but did I miss the size?

And yeah, check out the episode where George needs a nickname. Heeeey, T Bone! But as you have prolly surmised, it typically didn't work out for George in the end.....
