    119 each at Tirerack however my hookup at the Discount Tire store in Denton could possibly shave a few more off of that

    Keep in mind even if you dont race, ride quality can be affected in a bad way. If you keep the size down the weight shouldnt be too bad. But if you are looking at 16" or 17" it can really make the car feel different. I really like my Kosei K1-TS. They are around 10.5 lbs for 15X7. I think they might be a little heavier now, since I got some of the early ones that had a reported issue with bending. I have had no such issue. Just keep in mind anything over 15lbs will probably make a difference you can feel.

    My stocks weigh 15.5 (16" on a 2003) so this is only 1 pound more per wheel.

    Hey 3Bean...those are the ones I am leaning to. Do they look faster or something?

    I drove the "4x4" over to the other side of the tracks. The train is located just to the east of where they are building the new city hall. The Frisco historical society is rebuilding it along with homes moved to the site that represent Frisco's past.

    Next purchase is KYB AGX's and FM springs. That damn fender gap is atrocious
