  • Tires on Wheels Yokohama ADVAN Neova

    We have tires! Chad is putting on his ‘gently’ used ADVAN Neova AD08 Yokohama Extreme Performance Summer tires on my fancy new wheels. In typical Detroit Tuned fashion, the balancing weights got the blackout treatment so that we don’t have any shiny on the outside, even if its inside the wheels. If you’re wondering I preferred the Yokohamas over comprable Dunlop Direzza ZIIs because of the tread pattern. #Details

  • Detroit Tuned is busy

    Checked on the car this Saturday at Detroit Tuned. The wheels are much better looking in person, I was really worried that they were silverish. I was so used to the flat black.

    Chad continues to make progress and continues to amaze me with his attention to detail. Each bolt gets wire brushed then cleaned, then a coat or two of paint, and then a day to dry before being put back on.

  • DxR Wheels Powder Coated

    The new DxR wheels have been powder coated black. I will get to see them in person tomorrow. The photos make them look a bit ‘not’ black, but in the comparison pic between them and the old Focal F-05s they do look black. Hoping they are!
