What does the ROD SUPPORT do?

So you got rid of the gt500 LCA that comes with brembo...Improvement with brackets?

How is the pinion angle without upper CA?

How is traction? bumpsteer?

Sorry for the Q's, but figured you would know.
Confession here, we haven't put the LCA's or drop brackets on the car yet. But the way the car sits traction is great. I don't need it but will prob end up doing some sort of Bump steer kit in the future just to do it.

The LCA's I decided on only because you can see right through the wheels and I figures the Red ones would stand out more then the factory ones...

The ROD support replaces the factory one that the PHB attaches to.

That's one sweet looking 5.0!! CONGRATS!!
With the rear bumper being one solid color, it makes the back end alot beefier looking.

All the '13s I've seen pics of all all Deep Impact Blue. I had a chance to see it the other day, man oh man. It's like a amped up version of my favorite Sonic Blue, but more blue. Love the metallic transition. Same for the new red. I am partial to Sportlines, looks really nice. The wheels are unique and look easy to clean, big plus, haha. I just really don't like the tires. I had those same tires on my '05, so hard, not too grippy. Lasted forever, but they left alot to be desired. I really dig the silver on blue. Maybe some sunset pics?

What are the weight of those wheels? How are they made? All I found was "Concept One Luxury Sport Wheel Collection sets a new standard in wheel designs and technology. The Concept One Wheel Collection is an engineering marvel using cast wheel technology and a diamond cut mirror lip, unequaled luxury and redefining the wheel industry." Brave words. I couldn't find any info on their technology, or what makes them a marvel, lol.

I really like their CS 10.0 in matte gunmetal.

You had a issue with the tires? Man I love these Toyo's. I'll see if my POC can answer your questions because I have no clue... lol

Thanks man, I've been looking to switch to the GT500 bumper cover because of the larger Fog lights.
