dont get me wrong they are still very stiff.

i actually am in conversation with the guys at JIC to take my car over there and let them make the needed adjustments to make everything perfect.

so far no squeeking though. pretty quiet. i do hear the rear springs on driveways though. but its not annoying.

Its stiff but not bouncy stiff? You dont hit a bump and bounce up and down? I hope, becuase thats hoe my old JICs were.

thanks for the info

Nope no bounce at all, really smooth, just that stiff jolt.

i can run over a quarter and tell you if it was heads up or heads down. LOL

I am working with JIC to fine tune the setup for this car so ill let you know how that plays out.

I had this exact wheel and it is a great look. Problem is the finish was poor. The chrome was fading off the wheels. Exchanged for a new set and those faded too. They are a nice look though...long spokes with ascending thickness. Lots of visual play when moving or sitting still. Watch them carefully for signs of fading chrome and replace them. Zenetti won't exchange if there is even one scratch on the wheels....even if it's obvious the scratch has nothing to do with the fading chrome.
