My sense is that you would be happiest with a test drive on 17s and then sticking with a decent looking set of 16s, a rear sway bar from IPD. 17s are going to be a little stiffer than you're hoping for. If you do go w/ 17's, stick with new stock shock/strut combo from FCP Groton.

OK. Thanks Gents!
What I'm thinking is this:
1. Progressive-rate springs from Eibach. I want a bit of a lowered look.
2. Sway bar kit from IPD. I checked my 850...it has no rear sway bar!
3. End links. Should I get Quickbricks? Where do I find them?
4. Tires. I'm partial to Bridgestones, but my $$$$ can afford Kumho's. Can I get away with a 55 series tire (for ride) or do I need a 50 series to stop the rub?
So is the a good setup?
your thoughts....
