I love ms-02's. Since the 02's are made from magnesium they must be super light.

Really ??? Didn't know that. As soon as my car is registered as road legal i'll take them off and take some photos off them. Might put them on a wscale to see how heavy they are if you interested?

Mine is the same way- ADVAN SA3 18x8.5 in the fronts...

And that dip is right before I enter the freeway.. I just gotta remember to slow down all the time.. unless I'm in a hurry

Shipping to/from Japan would be quick and the same amount of effort as if I was shipping to USA. The coils were shipped Monday morning and would have been delivered Tuesday morning if it wasn't for a customs delay (got them Wednesday morning).

I would like to know what they weigh. I want to buy a set of ms-02's for street driving and put slicks on my fn-01rc's.

Here are a few quick pictures of my 1994 Efini RX7 I picked up a few months ago. The car was repainted entirely in 2005 Subaru STi Aspen White, and looks gorgeous in the sun. I will get some better pictures once my DSLR gets back from being fixed .

Correct, I am in Virginia. The car will be my track car once I start my project this summer and will only be driven a few times and taken to my college car club's car show in the spring. The car is currently registered, but that's all I am going to say...haha.

I think maybe I broke my camera today, it wouldn't focus and I kept having to turn it off and on and play with the zoom to try and make it take clear pictures. I guess its time to finally get a real camera.
