  1. I have set of 4 incl Eagles...14,000 k, just took them off, but if you are looking for the above deal, sorry. I need $ 1000 cdn.
  2. WHEELS 18 X 7.5 - TIRES GOODYEAR EAGLE RS A 225 x 45 X 18. ONLY 14,000 KLM. WILL ALSO FIT MILAN, ZEPHYR, MKZ...OTHER FORDS. LIKE NEW. $1099 CDN Located in Vancouver, BC Doubt any problem with US customs as they are used
  3. The 3.5 is a twin cam hi-revving engine, as mentioned before , I have CAI, Tuner kit, Magnaflow and lowered, 245 x 40 x 18 on 18 x 8. This engine is not a stop light dragster, although all of these mods have turned the car into a BMW killer it will not burn the tires (AWD or not), but once it gets on the rpm over 2000 it goes like stink. IMO you would have to be brain dead to keep hitting curbs when lowered...the change in the car is phenomenal, even the ride is better...highly recommend all of the above, people actually ask me about the car on the street..if attention is your gig, you'll like it. Personally I like the way it drives and handles, an unbelievable change, very European sports sedan like.. Good luck if you ever make a decision to change stuff. By the way, best to get professionals to install the exhaust (mine had to be modified to fit) and springs (also needed to be modded as described in another post) The CAI is also not an easy bolt in, especially for a novice, I had to make several changes, now it's a five minute re & re.
  4. Re: Steeda springs...check out my post in Fusion Sport section. I have done all that is available for the sport AWD...wheels & tires are on order....it is now a sedan sleeper, BMW killer. With the wider wheels and tires it will be awesome. Nice drive for the money with all of the mods.
  5. Magnaflow catback..sound great. CAI / tuner / exhaust is the best combo as it opens up the breathing from intake to exhaust and firms up the shift points. You can really feel the power diff. when it gets into the power curve over 2000rpm, really hauls ass. If you just want it to sound better and like the 4" tips, the catback is the answer. Once they "break in" and carbon up a bit the exhaust drone mellows out. Good luck
  6. I have a 10 Sport AWL...CAI, Tuner, Magnaflow exhaust, Steeda springs and soon new wheels and tires. My tuner is set for 87-89, covers both, higher octanes are set the same 91-93 to cover 2 ratings. If you want to find out if there is a problem with the 91 octane, take it out and red line it in several gears...if it pings get off the gas and you have a problem, but I doubt it. Pinging usually occurs even under lighter throttle, for example if it lugs slightly before it picks a lower gear...if no pinging no problem IMO. Years of hot rods in my past. Good luck.
  7. I have the Steeda springs on a 2010 Sport AWL. I like them a lot, however before you have them installed in an awl sport make sure they will fit over the front strut (measure first). Mine did not, appears the struts are thicker, we had the whole car apart, rears installed and the fronts would not fit over the strut, and the techs at Steeda had gone home. The guy I talked to didn't know what to do, wanted me to return them, we were at the point of no return. My mechanic had to spread the narrow coils hydraulically (no heat) and grind the ends so they did not damage the struts. They seem okay, perfect back to front rake, better than stock ride IMO. I am still having words with Steeda Canada about this Also installed Steeda CAI, tuner and Magnaflow. Its a sleeper rocket ship. Wheels and tires next, anyone interested in my Sport wheels & tires, 18 x 7.5, Eagles 225 x 45, only 14000 k. Canada, but because they are used there is likely no duty to US and no extra taxes.
  8. Thanks fast fusion...I have magaflow, Steeda CAI and tuner on the way, the spring mod will top it off.
  9. Hey fatfusion2010, Thank you for the response. Hows the ride compared to stock?
  10. Anyone have the Steeda springs on AWD? Like to know if it's worth the trouble, ride, handling, appearance - does the car maintain a rake to the front? Thanks
  11. Anyone have any experience with Steeda springs on Sport AWL? Is it worth the trouble? Ride Quality? Thanks
  12. Anyone have any experience with these? Ride quality?
  13. Advice from anyone here with Magnaflow catback on 3.5L. Is the drone at steady highway speeds annoying or just noticable? Thanks
  14. Hey, Does the exhaust drone at highway speed, and if so is it annoying? Thanks
