Yeah, you could get 225s on the R56.
$570 for the lot is damn good... I'm kinda jealous. My days of cheap rubber are over

Looks like I'll be leaving my car there all day on Friday so they can do the oil change, pulley and TB swap as well as fix my side skirt. These cars are known for the side skirt separating from the body and mine is no exception. I will pick it up Sat and my buddy is putting me in a rental, not sure what it's going to be, should be interesting.

I didn't IronX the entire car but just the d/s fender just to see and it turned RED immediately! DUB wheel cleaner and Bleache-White made quick work of the tires and wheels!

The car was finished yesterday but it needed to stay overnight so the repair made to the side skirt could properly adhere. The oil was changed as well as it was over 7k so everything is good to go.
I must say that the 2 mods (500 Madness lightened crank pulley and MPx ported TB) made a NOTICEABLE difference! Not that it lagged before because it didn't but now it's much more responsive, especially on the freeway going at speed. Parts were about $400.00 and I got a deal on the labor at $125.00 done by a Fiat tech at the dealership.
At this point the ATM FMIC can't get here soon enough...BATTER UP🇮🇹

Had to clean it up after the drive there and back and from the repair to the side skirt. New mods, fresh oil and almost 50 degrees and an outdoor rinseless, life is good🇮🇹
