Thumbs up

Very nice. That is the same color I am planning on getting. How do you like the Eibachs? The car looks great, let me know when you get your rims... I would like to know what size tires and offset of rim you get.

Spring seem okay. Right now, the car has 2200 miles on it. Solid as a rock; but I can imagine that a year down the road, those springs will have rattled some stuff loose. Springs are soft and smooth, until you hit a speed bump or something. When that happens, you would swear that someone put a pogo-stick under your seat.

Has anyone beens using Kumho tires? They are CHEAP on ebay.........are they junk? I don't want to pump $2000.00 in rims and tires. 'Bout a thousand, maximum.

Later...

Kumho's are great for an economy performance tire. The avid performance junkies would rather pass on them, but for the price, they're good.

Check these people out on some good tire/wheel package deals: WheelMax

I just bought some 17" Konig Heliums with Kumho Ecsta Supra 712 tires for $980.xx shipped from www.whalentire.com (including the lugs and locking nuts, also free mounting and balancing).

They're a different lug pattern, but they seem to be a pretty good place to deal with, my rims should be here tomorrow

Car looks nice, by the way! I love that color!

Terk XM Radio Antenna. I hated to go with that antenna, but the reception sucks on the smaller ones. I just installed (had it installed) an Alpind CD/Mp3 player, Punch 10" w/ amp, and all new door speakers. Stereo sounds phenomenal.
