True.... Speaking of...

Weather permitting I will be getting my first run in STR this Sunday.

My set up as the car sits it is an '01, stock suspension, Intake, HFC, Capt_Pants Exhaust mod, 17x9 +63 Volk CE28n's with 255 Dunlops...

I may be able to get my suspension installed (custom valved Koni yellows with 700lb front 600lb rear springs)

Im new to suspension tuning so Im not sure where to start with suspension settings but it should be fun.

[QUOTE=keifla123,Jan 25 2010, 02:07 PM] If they can do that weight for $159 per wheel they won't be able to keep them in stock.

+1. It's all about JDM YO!

I thought the CE-28s were 15.5, not 14.8...
