oh and i got the rota subzero 17x 7.5+48 in steel/gray with yokohama avs es100. i payed $1075 (tires already mounted) and if anyone is interested PM about details from where.
i don't think this should be the first mods, or the best if you have a stock car, but if you have an extra 1K i seriously recommend the rims/tires because i was stck with injen and just the tires made the car handel better and it felt like the lowend was better (due to lightweight rims).

Peter: "Well, not all chicks."
Leonard: "Well, the type of chicks that would wanna double up on a dude like me do."
Peter: "Good point."

I will definitely inform everyone how my experience goes with Top Setup. I'm not worried it though because the upgrades I'm doing are fairly simple. If it was work on internals, then I would definitely be very careful.

Maybe the F engine had a much heavier FW than the K engine.

Tomorrow's the day! I'm bringing the car to the shop at 9:00am. I already took pictures tonight so I can compare after the springs have been installed. I'll update with pictures tomorrow (Saturday).
