    I can jack the front of the car up from the side and the rear lifts up with it. That's how stiff the body is

    okay. that's the stock sized tire and i don't give a **** about traction. i daily drive it. and i get plenty of traction with a properly sized tire on an 8.5" wide wheel.

    learn to slide your car, noob.

    the car is pretty heavy and with it being manual i'll always have the ability to dump the clutch and roast the tires. rolling into the throttle in first well keeps traction issues to a minimum. i can break them loose smashing into second, too.

    but that's the fun part, isn't it?

    no, the rear brakes are the same size.

    the front brakes would be bigger if i was swapping in the 6 piston calipers, but i don't need those and i don't want to spend the money right now.
