RPF1 are light, my 17x9.5 were somewhere in the 18lbs range. I hear alot of people complain about how they flex under extreme driving conditions and whatnot. But I never experienced it, so I dont know.

hm, well if this Mustang doesn't make it to me today I don't have a problem with even picking it up today to get it taken care of. Just once that Mustang is here though, I'm pretty much booked for the week cause the 2010 GT follows it. This getting organized is a mess haha

If you're looking for a rear sway bar I have a whiteline adjustable 24mm brand new, still in the box.

Nick, I know he has tuned a few X with great results. You should PM him or call since he doesn't really talk about his services on here.

PEte, you should look into the sway bar. It will work with the stock springs just fine. Make sure you get some new endlinks incase the stock ones are too stubborn to come out. I had a hard time taking mine off and ended up destroying them during removal. Luckily Pistol was only a phone call away and got them to me the next day.

also, with your rpf1s did they come with or did you need extended studs with the 20mm spacer (assuming yes)?

I met the guy with the black Evo before (that's his house on welsh rd). I was at Adam's (evo8dad) house getting my tune and the guy with the black Evo was there picking up a friend (who was also dropping of an Evo). I'm not sure his username, but he said he posts on here, just not in the NE section.
