Got the tires and coilovers. Going to try to install the coilovers in the next few days. Then I need to find somebody to do the rolling/pulling.
BFG GForce T/A KDW 225/35 and 265/30.
I also got some TE37s for our family car. They are 18" wheels with 275/65/18 Michelins.
Future mods are
HID headlights/Foglights
Depot OEM looking Black headlights
Front Bar Gloss Black
Rear OEM wing

whats up real,
Great thread and definitely in for some updates, gotta ask, where in florida are you?
two things in your thread that really interest me, are you installing the coils yourself, and how much (if you dont mind) were you quoted to respray the front end? I want to do this too.
Thanks man
