Howdy listees,

Anyone had the pleasure of changing out their springs and shocks, that can share the experience? We just picked up some H&R's and some bilsteins, and are looking forward to jumping into the project.

We're gonna do the big brake upgrade too, as soon as we can get ahold of Ken Wilford (we heard he was looking to part trade for ECU's....).

We found some interesting wheels at our local les schwab. 16" TSW Revo's, in the right offset and width with 215/60/16 tires for the combo. About the same prices as the List Suppliers, but I am afraid the shipping would be too high, and it's good to have local services do maintenance.

Anybody seen these? Guess they fit.... and the load range is #1500 per wheel. http://www.tiretrends.com/wheel_catalog.php3?wheelID=114

I hope this makes the sway + wind + body roll issues diminish. I got to used to driving our 850 turbo volvo!

Thanks!
