Tree - my quote was from Amayama also so it's strange that we've got different prices??
$100 each sounds too much...
still waiting to hear back from them with the final price.

Nice one Red I'm gonna do the same to mine once I get zem in :)
Do you feel any changes on handling?


Not much difference really, maybe just a bit more self centering.
But it's only one degree more than I had before.

oh dude I forgot to mention my prices are in pairs so half it. I mean front pair, rear pair. Also my quotes are stock from UAE (Middle East I think) takes longer (30 days) than Japan but it's usually cheaper if ur not in a hurry.
So if $89 is for a pair from Lithia that's pretty good
One degree extra might count when driving to the limit esp with our temperamental cars ;)

Tree - Oh I see. When I contacted them about UAE stock before they said it's just better to choose Japan because they can't guarantee availability (ie. could take much longer). Also I'm not really prepared to wait weeks or months lol.
 
Just checked Lithia and it looks like it's just for one so x2 + Shipping. :)
 
Got a total price back from Amayama for $176 for the pair incl shipping ($40) from Japan. Don't think I'll find better than that?
