Hey guys, thanks!
It's H&R street performance coils I bought from Ricky Fkn Powers early on...it's set to pretty much maxed rear and even rake front.

Anyway, last weekend, what started as an impromptu drive up to Lake Okeechobee with J for her birthday weekend adventure turned into a 2.5 day 700 mile trip around the West coast of Florida in the S2000 with the mountain bikes in tow. What a great adventure! Car handled it like a champ, as expected...very comfortable car to drive. Turns out I probably won't be selling it any time soon as J loves it and our fun times in it. Also, once I get my own place it'll be very easy for me to swap cars out on days where I don't have to pick up my kid. :rockstar:

So sad you sold the Advans. Those wheels were 10/10 on your car!

Yeah, they were...and it's funny that the guy that sold me the original set is the one still here. The friendship made them worth it!
I just don't have the storage space I used to have anymore and I decided I was okay rockin oem wheels on all my cars...plus, buying
tires for two sets of wheels for every car was getting pricey. **** that shit!
