Ok, at 4:30 EST I ordered me a set of BAT's 'European Strut Set' off the ST200 Mondeo, thinking I was getting a steal since I thought they were the ones in the BAT handling kit. Then I do some research and find out that these are relatively the same as the SVT
... I had planned on buying the BAT springs seperately and throwing them all on at the same time.
So, I have a 98 SE Sport with 32k miles on it. Should I call BAT back in the morning, cancelling the order, and say forget about the struts and wait until I can afford the BAT kit. If I do put this combination on would the springs wear out when I eventually get the $400 to buy the RS struts in the kit? I also realize that I'm going to have to spend approx two hundred for installation, so if they will wear out in 40k I may just want to wait too...
Also, if I were to put the BAT springs on with my SE struts vs. the ST200 struts would there be much of a difference in handling?? Not sure what to do, thanks for the advice.
