Anyone have experience with swapping the shift "lever"?

Although the OEM one feels fine, don't like the looks of it, and am not a fan of the gear pattern on the bezel and not on the shifter itself

I guess each to their own but whenever I come across any aftermarket gear ***** or anything like that, I don't like any of those better than the OEM one for some reason.

^the OEM **** just doesn't seem sporty, at all, but I agree vast majority of aftermarket levers look bad (def NOT looking for a vin diesel double clutching special from pepboys)

That is nice, but would much rather have it in black. Nice look though.

Let me know how you guys feel about. Going to be adding some spacers in the front and rear to make it more flush. Can't wait.

My CV4's are for sale BTW:

Those really are unique and appealing, although it looks kind of weird having them swept forward, instead of back.

Of course, there is no right or wrong if it was a conscious decision, assuming that was intentional. Otherwise... oops.

Thanks bro. I agree CV7's look the best, but there is a black G in town with those wheels and didn't want to go that route for obvious reasons, lol.

haha I see I see now that all makes sense, good second choice bro, love the look one good thing about you guys in Florida is that you never have to worry about winter spare rims or tires so once u buy a set of vossens all you gotta worry about is u gotta buy rear tires every 2 years or so I guess, depending on which tires you get

You're brave. That choice would have driven me nuts.

Did you put those big 20"s on the scale before mounting them? Curious.

No. Didn't have one accessible, but they feel lighter than the CV4's by far.

New shoes, again

So i decided to replace my staggered set-up of Vossen CVT's for a more stanced out dual concave CV5's. Running 20x10.5 ET25 up front with 20x10.5 ET45 in the rear with 12mm Akata spacers (rear only). Running Toyo Proxes 4 255/30R20 all around. These tires stretch wonderfully. I'm in love with this set-up. Let me know what you guys think.

Going to lower the front about 1/4" more to match the drop on the rear.
