    I purchased the rims in Dubai they each are 20 lbs. I dont know if thats good or bad for the maritimes lol. I know they aint chrome but I like them anyway.[​IMG]

    I also purchased the tires they are firestone firehawks TZ100s. I know they also are really a low profile but again the price was awesome.

    the tires are going on monday i hope, plus i am also getting the paint protection package put on. It was supposed to have been done when i purchased the car but it slipped their minds i guess. So they will put the tires and rims while they do the package. I was a little pissed when i got the big ass chip on my hood second day but i got it worked out with the pain pen and patience. I blended it rather nice i will say lol.

    Mate, I like it. IMO needs to be lowered an inch or so. Did you get the GTS kit from the dealer?

    Looks good.

    As for the lowering springs, maybe consider the new Megan Racing Coilovers
    which will run you about $900

    Other options... you can check speedcorps.com or autocityimports.com for there prices. those are just my suggested websites

    Eibach Pro Kit - 1.2" Front, 0.8" Rear
    H&R - 1.4" Front, 1.3" Rear
    Progress - 1.5" Front, 1.4" Rear
    Tanabe - 1.1" Front, 0.9" Rear
    WORKS - 1.1" Front, 1.1" Rear
    RRM - 1.5" Front, 1.4" Rear

    But it's all about how low you would really want to go, and if you got the money as well.

    You know whats really sad about the flicker is that it can be disabled by the dealer just by hooking it up the the comp. But its against DOT safety. Oh well!
