natethomas2000 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I am hoping to be able to put about $2000 into the XT over the next several months. I have a few ideas but I would love to hear to any and all suggestions. Idea #1 (without voiding the warranty) 17" light-weight wheels (possibly used STI's) - $1200 great all-season tires (Pilot AS, Pirelli M+S, Falken 512) - $600-$800 Idea #2 (without voiding the warranty) 18" light-weight wheels (probably Rota Tarmac II's) - $800 great all-season tires (Pilot AS, Conti extreme contact or Avon 550) - $600-$900 Short throw shifter - $350 Idea #3 (probably voiding the warranty) 17" or 18" wheel/tire combo - $1300 Cobb AccessPort - $650 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03Indigo Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 well, i have the AP, the gains were not as great for daily driving as I had hoped. Great power in 3rd gear, but 1st is so quick, you hardly notice any real off the line difference. if it were me, and since i have 18" Tarmac II, hehe, I would go Idea #2, most change for your money. and I would get the ContiExtremeContacts....I have run those on many cars, and will use them as my winter tires this fall. Short throw shifter is a great idea, you might enjoy that more on a daily basis than the AP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
