Suspension and Wheels
The Suspension is the H&R Cup Kit. It consists of 4 springs and 4 matched shocks. The ride is very close to stock (for SVT). It lowered the car about 1" front, 3/4" in the rear. Though it didn't "slam" the car - it handles very well and has a great stance. For the money, its hard to beat. All components are meant to work together in unison. GREAT set up! Just added H&R Sway Bars!! WOW!!
The wheels are 17" Rota Attacks with 215/ 40/ 17 Yokohama AVS ES100 tires. Very grippy tires. Little loud on the highway and a low tread wear rating. They are perfect for the spirited driver who can buy tires every year. The wheels are VERY light weight, hi gloss black with a polished lip. I love Rota wheels. Look for Gold or Bronze SUBZERO's (see pic below) soon!
August 27, 2004 - NEW WHEELS!!!
17x7" Exel F1 (Bronze) with 215.40 Falken Ziex ZE512 tires
The wheels are bronze, but the face is like a hyper bronze...it has a machined face with a slight bronze tint and inside the spokes and the rest of the wheel is dark bronze. Looks AWESOME when they spin...they turn a goldish color! Looks HOT on the black!!
I let my buddy drive so I could get an action shot of my wheels spinning...also got tons of audio of my car roaring by...Im so jealous that other people get to hear that sound while I just hear a deep hum...
Sorry the pics suck...
