After a hectic friday of having the Exhaust dropped off on time, FedEx decided to lose my package containing my springs. I had a scheduled appointment at 10am for everything to get installed on Saturday morning.
After countless calls to FedEx up until 8pm, they told me to call back in the morning in hopes of the package coming up. I woke up the next morning after not being to sleep at 7am and headed upto FedEx in Springfield to pick up my package. I waited for them to retrieve my package for almost 30 minutes. Finally they located it and all was good.
Now for the pics and review:
Exhaust - Aboslutely wonderful. Has a deeeeeeeep deeeeeeep sound. Not farty, no droning, just a smooth exhaust note.
Suspension - TEIN makes some very nice quality stuff. Install was a breeze and took a lil more then 1 1/2 hours. The drop is perfect. In the rears i can get 1 finger between the wheel and fender, and the front almost 2 fingers. The ride is smooth as silk and handling is amazing.
Rota Subzeros - The wheels were purchased off of fellow member (whos name ill withhold). The price was $650 for 17" Rota Subzeros with 711 tires in great shape with the wheels containing some normal wear and tear knocks and scratches. That being said i purchased them. Low and behold, one of the wheels i curbed half way around the rim. Its bent, and the ride is ridiculous with them. I have since taken them off to get mounted and balanced when i recieve the extra wheel i had to purchase.
Now for the pics:
And the curbed wheel:
I have since contacted the seller in hopes of some type of reimbursement for the amount i had to shell out to simplyt make the set work. For that price, i would and should have simply purchased a brean new set of wheels and tires. BTW, the pics do not do the curbage justice. I have a feeling he may have curbed them after he sold me these wheels because when i pulled it out of the box, i could use my fingers to take off pieces of the rim where it had been curbed. The curbed arear were shiny and not dirty, and the wheels were not cleaned....they were dirty as well. Just dooesnt add up that he sells them as being normal wear and tear and i get the shaft and buy 3 good rims.
I guess this is just a hard lesson learned if he doesnt fess up to it.
