Got my FR41's and PSS installed yesterday

I am simply amazed by the ride improvement over the stock Pirelli's. I lowered the car with the Hotchkis TVS and installed 20x10 fronts sporting 285's and 20x11 rears with 315's...true bliss on the street now.

I was a black chrome skeptic...my wife liked them more than the flashy chrome I was set on...now I cannot envision anything else!

Great looking ride. I have polished FR41's and PSS's. They are great looking and the ride difference with the PSS's are worth the extra $.

I ordered them when I ordered the car. They are factory. I believe you can get them direct from the dealer, colored, but they are pricey.

I went with the 1" Hotchkis lowering springs. There are no clearance issues. I went down a couple of really crappy roads this weekend and the suspension and tires just ate up the bumps...even my wife was impressed with the ride (she made me get rid of the Pedders pace car suspension I had in it before due to ride issues).
