That house

What house? It's just where I sleep. Doesn't do anything exciting but drain money I could use for my car.

How do you like those BMR springs? I've been looking a at a few different brands. Also which version did you go with?

 

[HoosierDaddy]

One more thing, they also told me that the wheels are 8.8" wide. Has anyone seen an 8.8" wide wheel?

Not sure who "they" are but wheels are generally referred to by the distance between the lips rather than the actual wheel width because that's what the tires "see". So a so called 8" wheel might very well be 8.8" wide if you measured the actual width of the wheel (outside of lip to outside of lip).

Not saying that's what's going on but it is POSSIBLE.

Ive put about 400 miles on them now. I have the performance spring. Wife has ridden in the car a lot which I was worried about and she hasn't said anything. They are slightly stiffer, no more squishy rear end, stance is perfect, and make no noise as I've read in other threads. They are exactly what I wanted. I rarely say that too. I'm usually a little disappointed by what I choose, but these have done exactly what I want. Adjust stance and very slightly firm up ride.

Does the CS have the soft touch upper door panels and the leather/stitched dash like the premiere trim?

No. I don't know if you can select Premier trim with Califronia Special trim.

Unbelievable! Simple question, what is the wheel width of the California Special 19" wheels and does it come with summer or all season tires. Here is what I got back. The all season tire question was answered, but it doesn't match the sales brochure.....

Dear Mr. DeCesaro,

I have been informed by my Brand Manager that the tires will have to be measured at the time of delivery. Also summer only tires are exclusive to the GT Performance Package so the tires for the California Special are all-season.

Just tried build and price, removes CS package when you try and add premier trim

 

[Sas707]

You can.

Correction: You can't BUT the equivalent still may or may not be part of the CS package. I don't know.

You can.

Thanks but that's not what I am asking, so let me clarify:

Does the CS interior have soft touch upper door panels and leather/stitched dash like the premiere interior has? Or does the CS interior have faux dash brow stitching and hard upper door panels?

As I replied, no.
