    Difference in ride with 18" vs 20's, substantial.

    ^^ You can always change the 20s for 18s of the same wheel. It's only money Al.

    Al the 07 - 09 GT500 rims would be a good choice in 18 by 9.5" for track rims and they often come up for sale used. Keep your 20" Roush wheels for DD activity.


    Built not bought! Follow this link to my 08 GT/CS Air Lift Performance Suspension Install Thread or this link to my Garage Thread

    My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my car and parts for what I told her they cost!

    Goal is really to improve ride comfort on the street. I enjoy the track but the car doesn't see it often. Still hoping there's a set up that will give a nice ride and still let me keep my 20s and a similar stance.

    I expect Stephen has the answer but I'm too cheap.

    Mine is quite simple at the moment. Eibach Pro S Coilovers with GT500 strut mounts. Still to be installed is the Steeda UCA whenever I have time to go see Rick. Everything else is stock Track package equipment for now.

    2007 GT convertible

    $50 used set of kijiji Eibach prokit springs
    Eibach camber bolts.
    Alignment checked by string. Seems fine. Steering wheel still dead straight. Doesn't pull or wander. No irregular tire wear. Got about 5000 kms like this.

    I know I should get it aligned and get a panhard bar. Too busy enjoying it to do that.

    The good. It looks good

    The bad. It's fine. Nothing really bad to say. The public roads aren't race tracks so I don't race it.
