It all depends how bad you want it :)
Like I said before, they are hard to find in Canada up for sale. I looked almost everyday for about a year before I found one.

That sucks.
The thing is that they don't come up for sale to often in Canada, that's why they ask so much for them.
Keep looking, sooner or later you'll find one that you're happy with the price.

I don`t know what your max limit is, but you won`t find them for sale in Canada to often. I just bought it because my friend never used it and wanted the space in the garage. :)

Nothing wrong with that. I`ve put used pads on used rotors before.
A friend of mine changes from street pads to track pads using the same rotors every time he goes to the track.

There's no greater feeling when you are pushing your car, than accelerating thru the turns and feeling the car grip without worrying about the car understeering or oversteering.
It sounds like you...

Go with 225/45r17 if you have 255/40r17 at the rear. It will be a better match.

I get what your saying, and I agree, but wouldn`t it be nice not to worry about the car understeering in the first place?
I prefer a car that oversteers than a car that understeers.

If I were you I would get 225/45r17 for the front to get rid of the understeer that these cars have.
I lot of people on here go with a wider tire at the front for that reason.

Those are 17 inch wheels, I can still get half a finger between the fender and the tire.
I don`t know if 18 inch wheels would look as good.

You should be fine. The only time I replace the coil springs is if they are rusted or if a spring breaks. Springs usually last for the life of the car.

I wouldn`t paint the console the same gold as the wheels, I would go with the red that you plan on painting the car with. As far as painting all the Silver pieces, that`s a matter of preference.
