Nice! I have always like the P40's. Are they 19's or 20's?

dk10438 Jun 15, 2011 11:06 AM

19's
didn't want the added weight associated with 20's, plus the streets here in Hermosa are really bad and the car is already uber stiff with the coilovers and sway bars.
What part of Portland are you from. I grew up in Beaverton and L.O.

with PASM on sport, it is extremely stiff. IMO, far too stiff for regular driving, especially in Hermosa where the streets are in fairly poor condition. In regular mode, it is probably 33% stiffer than the OEM shocks and I don't find it too uncomfortable but I am used to stiff cars.

Great choice - 20's always make the rotors look so small too.

I'm in West Linn - right by LO. And my mother in law moved from N. Carolina to Beaverton. Let me tell you I wish I was in Hermosa Beach right now - need some of that sun up here!!! Esp since I grew up in LA and know how nice the beach is... :(

Looks great. Do you need new tires or just the rims? I really like those wheels.
