haha thanks man. i painted the stock ones black. I woudnt sell them becuase 1. it's an extra set of rims just in case of anything every. 2. track tires will eventually go on those, so when i do take it to the track i know i can hook up.

My new ones are 17 front 18 back silver c5 rims. i got some 255/45/17 on the front and 295/35/18 on the rear.

well, i dont konw the price either, you could put it in ur cart and see how much it is. My guess would be you could buy those things seperate and save more money and probably get a better set up. personally i would rather buy seperate parts and get the sizes i want and save some money. I would buy an eibach pro kit lowering springs, and kyb agx adj, or bilsteins. I've never heard of eibach shocks!


My mods all pretty much all under my car. lol When i get the rims on and ill clean her up, ill get my gf's camera and get some pics of the engine bay, interior, subwoofer set up, rims, tires, and of course the car. It'll be a few weeks tho.

i did and i beat an rx8 on a curvy road and i have a 3.4 v6! My car's doing just fine. It may be better to buy in a package, but find a better package. That was not a very good one. I would say get some eibach pro kit springs, kyb agx adj struts and shocks, find a sway bar set, front and rear. A strut bar if you want, it more looks better that adds and handling. And some rims with good tires, dude you'll be set like a mother ****er! Oh and an adj. panhard bar.

i know there is a difference in suspension stuff for a v6 and a v8, this is because of weight. even though i have a v6, would it handle better or meaner if i got the v8 parts? or would this just be overkill?

the only difference as far as engine type is the springs. Everything else doesnt matter. Strut bar will matter depending on year and engine. Be sure to check that.
