I posted this on the "other" board too. This is my new home since it seems to be more about helping people and less fighting!! Anyways, I just ordered the Eibach lowering kit and should have that installed in a couple weeks. Here is the link.

Oh, keeping these wheels clean is a chore compared to the stock 19s. I have the stock brakes and dust has become an issue!

Do these really cost 4k shipped?

Depends on the current exchange rate and how you have them shipped.. boat is cheaper than air etc but you can get them around mid 2's

and I 'Found' my wheels! Sitting somewhere in Long Beach right now.. Should be on their way 'soon'.. probably will be 2009 before I get them though.

Thats not too bad, I could live with that. Can you tell me more about the fenders your getting? How much is that running, and is it a direct fit? Thanks.

They're the GTS Fenders - not sure on price since I combined it with the wheels for shipping purposes (and it's been ages ago - ordered in like october! I think it was around 1.5k for just the fenders). They SHOULD be a direct bolt-on replacement for the existing ones - just need to be painted.

Of course once I get the fenders & wheels on I REALLY need some bigger brakes to fill in all that space.. maybe the baer kit sometime next summer or so
