The ride isn't stiff at all. It's really nice. I expected it to be way stiffer but I think the 05 springs are a little stiffer than older models anyway.

Yeah, Oaf, it was that little redheaded bastard that ripped me off.

So are we talking any stiffer than stock at all? If so, how much?

IMO, those new style stock wheels look pretty good. I think you could just leave them alone for now, or paint them a darker bronze or gunmetal. Would look pretty sweet and not cost $1200. Don't know if you need winter tires, or an extra set for racing or anything, but you could later use them for either of those if you got new wheels later.

Anyway, your wagon looks sweet right now and will probably only look better.

They are stiffer. Just not a ton. I threw it through some corners today and it sits down nicely.

The biggest reason I want the wheels is the bigger size. It's just an inch but I makes a big difference in looks. Not to mention lower profile + stickier tires because I only drive it on the street (except for a few trips to tahoe).

And Flat black is calling to me.
