when they come out you'll probably find them on ebay and some of the vendors here.

winter driving is fine in a lowered car as long as you have good winter tires.

chester, will do but hope you can wait until the spring.

all we have so far is what we've had.....
part numbers...

(coupe)
HTS510FR (front right)
HTS510FL (front left)
HTS510R (rear x2)

I've been looking up pricing for other applications:
D-Spec/HTS FRONT pair pricing averages anywhere from $350 to $450 for front pair only....

I had Tokiko Blues with Sportlines on my 04 LX and they felt awesome..so I'd imagine the D-specs gotta be even better.
