Well, I was at SHM the day darkpuppet and bluetoy bought the kits, and they were selling it for $1000 cdn that day, and not $1000 usd. IF they would agree to sell it at that price again, I'll go there and buy it in small bills if they want...lol!

I just wonder why Jac Mac on Tuner Transformation said darkpuppets car handles like a tank? I guess he doesn't drive many cars that cost less than $30,000...either that, or make it seem like the show improved the handling...

Refference the tires, there's a shop in Brantford that wants to sell me some Nexxen tires, 215/45 ZR 17's for like $120 each or somewhere near that price...but I'm still more inclined to buy the Fuzions as they are made by Bridgestone, and have their road hazard quarantees, etc. I've talked to one of the Ford dealerships in Brantford before, and they said the SVT euro's are $200 each cdn, plus taxes, but they said they might be able to sell them to me at wholesale price...if that's the case, I'd likely get them $200 each, taxes-in.

I dunno how much difference the suspension kits like the SHM one make compared to stock...it's supposed to be beyond and above an SVT suspension...which is for sale for like $275 or something riduculously cheap like that.

I've also contemplated getting a JRSC...simple to install, has a warranty, and should net me at least 150hp at the wheels, which would be an obvious difference over stock...I dunno...they seem expensive though for the amount of boost you get out of it with the standard pulley, but I like the fact that it's self-contained and that it requires no mods to the head or block since the boost is so low.

Anyways, I've gotten off track...lol...Maybe I will swallow hard and buy BOTH the suspension kit, and the rims...I only want approx 1.25-1.50" drop on the front and 1.50-1.75" on the rear, which is what I think the SHM kit is after settling. That way I lose the fender gap, but shouldn't have the floor scraping everything...

Any more suggestions?
