I'll get it cleaned up a bit and take a few more pics in the next few days for sure.

I've put a few km on it today and it actually rides really good. Stock yaris struts up front and stock yaris shocks with xD springs in the rear.

As for power... well in the city it's not bad at all. Just wind the gears out another couple hundred rpm. On the highway... be prepared to downshift on long/steep hills. As for getting on the hiway, speed is easiest acquired in 3rd. I basically leave it in third all the way down the ramp.

It doesn't feel any less stable than a stock yaris. With the 2" wheel spacers, offset rims and wider tires in the front, plus hub spacers in the rear its approx. 5" wider track in the front and approx 6" in the rear.

For the first time since I was a kid, I can't wait for snow!
