thanks Roy. I went with tien springs and the koni's strt shocks/struts. I also replaced the oem mounts with the steeda hd mounts. Once the oem ones were removed the bearings were all over the place from one side so im glad i had the steeda's on hand. Now I have to grab some wheels and call it a day.

Very nice! Did you use the oem rubber spring seat to use with the steeda HD? I was originally going to use the GT500 mounts and ordered them. A few days later I changed my mind and ordered the steeda HDs. I ended up using the spring seat from the GT500s for the steedas. I'm glad I had them. Worked out great and I love it.

I like how yours looks. I doubt just getting new wheels will be enough however...it just never ends. lol Congrats!
