Looks great.

From reading in the other thread. If it were me I wouldn't worry about a 17x9 up front for now. I have 17x9 all around and it absolutley follows grooves in the road (it is worth it though). I would save the dough for the suspension. As a matter of fact I would save the money on the 4.10s as well and get the suspension first. Some shorter stiffer springs will the change the car in an unbelievable way. If you can get it I recommend Kenny Brown on suspension parts. Just my .02.

That sounds cool. But when it comes time for the suspension mods. Don't think of them as appearance mods. Rather think of them as go fast parts (in corners and launching) that have the added effect of fixing your wheel gap. Your friend with the 3.73s will never keep up with you in the twisties.
What ever order is fine, for they are both desperatley needed for some fun hell raising.

Again the wheels look awesome.

looks good man. Should have wrote sooner. just gave away my eibach springs I had on my car. All you would have had to do is pick them up. 4.10's will be great, I love my 4.30's almost wish I had put in the 4.56's

love that color!
As stated above, the suspension must be considered as a performance mod, as are gears, intake, etc. since it makes a big difference in how the car behaves in the road, w the added bonus of visual appeal.
