Dude,

Get the car and drive it around first.. Most info you will get is no good for street driving in NYC!! With mono ***** and stiff sways you will think every bump bent a rim.

Have to agree with Tim on this. I have 450/700 with my Motons and mostly drive on smooth roads or track and the ride is great. When I do go on poor city streets, it feels terrible.
