yeah exactly. also he didn't know a ton about cars, so he might not have realized how long the advans are meant to last. we'll see though. if he gets back to me today/tom i'll try to get them tom at lunch since i'm leaving for london fri.
what does raked mean? front vs rear height?

Raked is the hot sh*t. I am sure that the different shocks contributed to the changed stance.
Actually, that's one of the things I love about the Hotchkis, it just makes driving at night b*tchy!
You guys are funny, comparing torque specs! 90 v 75 doesn't matter. What matters is that they're not gonna fall off, that they're all the same, and that you're not stretching your wheel studs.
I also have a torque stick that's set for 80 but i've never used it....i usually dial it in to 80 or 85... but if you are so worried about it then let me ask you: "when was the last time you had your torque wrench calibrated?"
For all we know, they're going on at 45 or 145 ft-lbs. :-)
I needs the rockband badly! Tom Sawyer, FTW!
Also, Turco...whatever Dex leaves at your house becomes yours after 24 hours. In other news, I am selling a hot TurboXS catback! Any takers? Comes with pre-attached EvoIX cat and downpipe! Will not, er... CAN not separate!

I wish I had known. I got a good price, though... $635 shipped for 245/40/18. And they hooked me up with $15 aluminum hubcentric rings.
