Good info.
Running 17s doesnt bother me much. Limits tire choices I guess but I wont be racing it.
Just back roads and stuff anyway.
I liked the 030 suspension but at 3600 bucks not a big deal, esp if I can swing the Spyder next year.
Will be looking for a low mile pristine 987 Spyder.
I figure 60-65k should do it.
Ill have to sell my Zenos first.
