I've searched and seen a few, but I would like to see what suspension everyone is running and how it looks on the Tour.
I'm really having a hard time making up my mind as to which one would look best.
My plans are to drop it and get some larger rims. I'm thinking a set of RS5's in 18's shoul fit her rather nicely.
Please don't forget to list your suspension, shocks and spring setup.
Thanks again for all the help.

Wow! fst4dr that looks sooo clean. I am contemplating that exact set-up, but did you need to install a camber bolt kit or anything if its that low? I just dont want any premature tire wear. Thanks.

I was expecting a horrible ride, but was suprised. It is pretty stiff, but that is what I was looking for. It gets a bit bouncy over big bumps, but the Konis do a good job of keeping it all pretty controlled. I'm quite happy with it.
I haven't installed anything to control the camber, so it is over the suggested max. I have only had them installed for about 2 months. The tires seem to be wearing ok, but I will be rotating the tires often to try and keep uneven wear to a minimum. If that happens, I will install the BAT camber kit.

I am hoping to have some pic's of mine with the ST200/Roush set-up pretty soon. I took a bunch of pics today of mine and a few of the UIM/LIM cleaning skid123 and I did on his SVT today. The digicam my friend had would not work on my `puter, so I will have to wait on them to e-mail the pics to me!
