I have a silver SVT with Focus SVT rims and the BAT spring/strut kit. With that combination, my car looks just like the lowered version of that picture. With the handling and looks the kit gives,plus the $600 price tag for everything you will love it.

One other thing. The 17" rims raise the road height of the vehichle because they are an inch taller, you get a half inch or more of height depending on the tires you bought. The BAT kit drops the car about 1" so with the combo you get right back to the stock road height. I was very pleased with that fact since I had the BAT kit first, then when I put the rims on I got back all of the road clearance that I had.
Here's the kicker, there is almost no squat and dive with the kit, so when you take those dips quick or you hit the parking lots a little fast, the car does scrape like it used to.

I was considering that kit.
Thanks, now I might have to dish out $600 more!

I save on shipping also. BAT is an hour away...

my buddy just got some svt focus wheels on his car. it looks clean and it looks good, but our car isnt meant to be an offroad or 4x4 car. it looks like a monster. we both agree that he definatley needs to lower it. he decided that hes gonna go with intrax springs. i think it will look real good. either way id lower the car. i like th photo shop work. its good to have an ideah of what his car will look like, that way he wont be scared to spend that 600 bones.
