Winter wheels/rims off, summer setup put on: 4 x 9.5 OEM rears on new Pilot Super Sports. Looking forward to being able to get on the throttle again.

Bilstein PSS kit installed along with control (or thrust) arm bushings

For those needing to do replace struts suspension stuff, just DO IT.
Just your normal fun driving - nose dips, accel squats, hard corner rolls ALL GONE.
The car feels like the nimble cat it once used to be. Literally feel like I'm flying woohooo!

Had a vibration in my steering between 70 & 80 mph.
Just needed to get the front tires balanced.
Glad it wasn't anything more serious.

Just ordered a pair of the Meyle HD thrust arms from AllGermanParts.co.uk, recieved great service from Jason, sent a quick email before hand to double-check on part numbers.

He came back to me in 20-odd minutes, so I placed the order, emailed back to thank him, and he confirmed the parts would be dispatched today and thanked me for the order. All good.

Put new wheels and tires on, yesterday. Today, I'll be washing it and taking pictures. Tomorrow, I'm getting it filthy by driving the piss out of it. Then, another wash.

Replaced my "bubbling" rear view mirror with another "bubbling" one purchased from a board member and repaired by Scott.

It's like-new!
