I have a question.

Why the hell do all RD customer prefer the step lip RD wheels over the reverse lip ones ...

Curious since the reverse/flat lip wheels are generally far more popular than the step lip wheels wich look a lil bit "oldschool" to me...

Step lips are better on a real sports car..... I hate flat lipped wheels

I agree. Flat lips are whack.

I just left SoCal yesterday evening and flew back to Calgary. My RS 46 motor has more than 16,000km's (10,000 miles) on it with no problems at all. The fuel economy is the same or better than stock, oil consumption has been minimal, and the performance is spectacular. I've run the motor for 10 hours straight two days in a row (only stopping for fuel pretty much), 4-6 hours in 36 degrees celsius (97 Fahrenheit), been through hours of redlining and hard driving, and have not experienced any issues whatsoever. If that isn't a testament to reliability then I don't know what is.

I'll be back in the Los Angles area Sept. 24-28th, so if anyone wants to take me up on my offer and test drive the car, send me a PM.
