Hello All
Last year I bought a Sebring Silver 02 with 14,800 on the odo. Sweet ride and I'm glad I found it. Before everyone starts yellin' that its a garage queen remember when I sell it I'll probably sell it here and one of you guys will probably buy it. I'm not much for joining forums but when I read the sticky by spa-zz on wheel fitment I was impressed so here I am. Now for the needed imput; I'm decieded on Bridgestone RE-11's so thats settled but I'm going to pop for wheels also and I'm thinking RPF1's 17" The oem is 16" but I'm sure when the change was made from AP1 to the AP2 it didn't include changing the wheel opening so I should be good correct? Following the above mentioned sticky (thanks spa-zz and all others) I am 3mm shy for fitment of 215 tires on front and just barely in the range for 245 in rear. Big problem? I will not sacrifice tire contact patch and cannot bear to hear rubbing at anytime under any driving conditions so if you guys think the 3mm is trouble please let me know. I'm also considering the Kosei K1 TS in gray. Does anyone have gray rims and could the post a picture. How about the quality of Kosei? How about the quality of Ekei? How well do painted rims hold up, any chips or dings? How strong are these after market rims, as strong as oem, will they hold up to track day events and the crap roads of Long Island? Speaking of which how do you guys get away with tracking the S without a roll bar. Most tracks need you to pass the "broom stick" test or no go. If I wanted to get a roll bar installed who what and where? Last thing on rims where do you guys buy yours. Next; car alarms. Do most of you guys install and after market alarm and which ones? How about that front spoiler on the CR will that fit an 02? Ok Doc I feel better now can I get off the couch? thanks - John
