Kev946 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Only just seen these. Very Nice Tim, your car looks soooo much better. Just to fuel the wheel weight argument, I have forged Compomotive MO's on the Cossie and these are extremely heavy. They are designed for rally use though so super strong. I also have a set of Mag Alloy Forged Speedlines with slicks and these are superlite. The slicks also save alot of weight. My Works are heavier than my GT4's but alot of this is down to the tires being heavier. 18kg for Rays is very light and even if you do find a 19 that light the tire is certainly going to be heavier.

Kev946 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 They came whilst I was in the states so not fitted them yet. They are basically replacement struts but are fully adjustable. Much the same as the Koni Sports Kits but 16 way adjustable. They are supposed to be top quality and are the same as the S-Tune shocks except those aren't adjustable. Tokico make the S-Tune stuff. They should match nicely to my RS-R springs. Will let you all know what they are like once fitted, hopefully Sunday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
