I guess ls1fonzie answered the question, haha. The GM dealership right next to it, is still hanging on though! They had a c6 z sittin out front, that thing is BAD! Anyone know if I can run 6le's splitter with my SSRA?

your car looks really good, if i was you add that splitter from 6lit. The splitter looks like it belongs on the car, and trust me when you put it on you wont want to take it off. check out how mine looked after splitter install.

Lets see I got the wheels from tomzwheels on ebay for $675 w/ free shipping. It was really hard finding a chrome set with no rivets and also the 18x9.5 for alll four. I think the owner of TOMZ has cancer and they are no longer selling wheels. If they are not selling than the ones I got were made by a company named "Factory Reproductions", maybe you can find another place selling their wheels. I also got the Nittos off ebay for $200 a tire w/ free shipping. So for wheels and tires it was $1475 I then took them to tire shop in town and got them balanced and mounted for $65. A grand total of $1540 with them on the car. Not too bad.

Haha, thanks man -- but I did a poor job or clarifying which installation I meant. The strano springs is what I was implying...the springs are $275 correct? What did it cost you to have those installed.

Thanks for all the comments! Stranos springs make a world of difference! Better Stance, Better handling, and better ride! They are stiff but not harsh. I definitley recommend them to everyone! Yes the pics were taken in dinuba. If you guys were to pick a favorite picture, which one would it be?
my favs are 1,3,5

Mine was already low so it being the 1.2 in. lower did not make that big of a difference. I'm sure your already careful so you just have to go that extra mile to avoid anything that might hit. It really did lower it consistently 1.2 in. all the way around. These springs are nice. I was worried at first, but all you have to worry about it hitting are things that you can avoid like speed bumps or steep driveways not random pot holes or dips in the road. Go for it! You wont be disappointed!

Yeah it was a fairly new dealership, probably only 2 years old. I hate Ford but it sucks that people are losing their jobs. Anyway it was a pretty cool place to take some shots. Thanks for the comments.

Under your bed? Man I'm sorry that I have to be the one to tell you but they aren't doing you any good there. Those are supposed to go on the car, I'm sure they make your bed handle better and give it that perfect stance that you have always wanted, but try them out on your car. $1,000 says you like them better on the car. Well thats just my $.02 and I'm sure others on here agree with me. Your sleeping on gold
