CCW Comes Through Again!
Finally the day has arrived! My chrome CCW SP16a's came this week and I got the chance to bolt them on tonight. (Despite the 90 degree/high humidity weather conditions) Sorry for the crappy pictures...have not got the digital camera thing down yet.
I must say that the initial test drive revealed a much better ride the the run flats offered! I think I am gonna like the new set up!
The car has that "just jacked look"...might settle down a bit. However, the obvious next step is to lower the car on the stock bolts. This is probably beyond my expertise. Anyone have suggestions on where to get this and the resulting allignment done in Dayton Ohio?
Thanks!
Tom

Thanks Zilla!
You probably don't remember, but I briefly met you at the CI.
My car is Lemans Blue. Really debated between the 505As, Sp16As and the SP20As. I would be happy with any of them!

congratz & good choice on the wheels!
As for lowering your car, it can be done in your own garage. All you need is a jack, jack stands, a couple of toos and approx. 35 minutes of your time.
The wheel alignment is not a must but some do it anyway.
