1> I need a rim, but want to know if there would be a considerable gain in traction if I replaced both rears with 17X9 and more Nero rubber or just stay stock?
2> Where can I get the tool to compress my brake calipers?
3> Any better all-round suspension then the Saleen kit? I love corners and straight line drag launches. (I know you are suppose to pick one or the other)

Thanks in advance :SNSign:

compress front or rear calipers? they are different, because the rears have the parking brakes mechanism, and needs to be rotated in, not compressed.

You also have to crack the bleeders to get the pistons to collapse.

1) Very doubtful. Drag radials are about the only way that you will drastically enhance traction, in that area.

3)There is also Roush, FRPP, and Steeda. They will probably all perform similarly.

Not to mention that the FRPP suspension (Handling Pack) is being used on all of the Shelby GT's that are going to be sold starting this winter.
