Looks good man, springs probably make the biggest difference compared to almost any other visual mod.

You make it sound like you got a good deal, but you got ripped off. I had my headers and midpipe installed for 200. haha. A spring install is 30 minutes on each corner if you take your time.. 2 hours max. you could of done them yourself with a buddy for free with simple tools.

Looking good, springs are easy to install if you have the right tools and use common sense. If you are lacking either its better to have someone else do it before you kill yourself.

with spacers that are like 1/4 of an inch or maybe up to half an inch yes, it reduces the amount of space that there is available to turn the lugs on, because they are like giant washers. However, with the one inches it looks like the cap themselves off, the you affix the wheel ont studs tht are attached to the spacer... if that makes any sense!

I dont understand... why they dont fit factory wheels? Are there tighter regulations of factory wheels? I wanted these for my factory polished cobras... =(
