Default 1999 V8 Suprise!

Hey Guys! im finally get a white 1999 SC400 from an auction and have a few questions, first off i would like to know if anyone has seen these wheels/have them on their SC:
http://www.tenzoracingsports.com/wheel06.htm

Also, after reading through threads about the dismal cd changer, i would like to probably get an indash, but not sure which brand. what would you guys recommend?, ive been looking at this rear wing and would like to know if any else may have bought it:
http://www.circuitmotorsports.net/me.../i-520078.aspx

Last but not least! springs/coils. i would like to do a 1.5in drop so i dont have to roll to clean my wheels (hopefully),so again what would you guys recommend?

(i did search the forum for some things but not all could be answered, sorry if i bother you guys)

All of these questions can be answered by looking at the sticky under this section of forums.

Welcome to the SC world.

19 x 8.5 front +20
19 x 9.5 rear +20

Get that for a really mean agressive setup which would require a fender roll.

If you get that same size but in the +35 offset, you will get away without needing a fender roll but it won't be as crazy agressive looking (which alot of people don't care about).

For the suspension: Gixxer_Drew 500/250 setup. (And do the LS400 caliper upgrade while you're at it)

Wing: OEM is the best on these cars or wingless.

Stereo/CD deck: Nakamichi CD400

The reason you haven't seen anyone with that roof spoiler, is that the one pictured on that site isn't the Megan Racing roof spoiler. It's just a generic picture.

This is the Megan roof spoiler:

Im not a fan of roof spoilers on the SC (at all), but I'd be interested to see that one in the link, photoshopped onto our cars.

Also, I don't know who has those Tenzo's but thm8d posted a pic of his/her wheels (same color), which are something similar; so perhaps you can get an idea ...

No offense, thm, Im just not certain who's who (guy or girl).
Speaking of which, we should have a poll, to see the ratio of guys to girls on this forum.
Im certain we have more guys, but I'd like to have a reference; that'd be cool.

Haha, it's alright. I'm a guy and I'll agree that most people on here are guys. If anyone's wondering what wheels these are, they're Forgestar f14s
