ProtegeSTS,<p>C$900.00 for rubber and C$900.00 for rims, that's C$1800.00 right there bud. That's not a lot to pay for rims/rubber. I didn't even include the lowering sprigs & struts.<p>[ March 31, 2003: Message edited by: zytariuk ]</p>

Eggo,<p>Here is what you will *need* to purchase along wit the ZX2 Struts.
(4) Dust Boots/Shields (This protects you're struts from external elements)
(2) ZX2 Front Upper Strut Bearings
(4) Camber Bolts (This adjusts you're camber so that you're tires wear evenly)<p>
Things you really should know...
- The struts also do not NOT come with new top shaft nuts. I reused the old ones, but it's probably a good idea to replace them.<p>- The ZX2 strut shafts are 22mm in diameter, as the stock shafts are 20mm, the ZX2 shaft will not fit inside the collar without enlarging the hole. This is possible with a steady hand and a Dremel.<p>- The ZX2 sruts are 1/2" smaller than the stock OEM mx-3 struts. However, look on it on the bright side; it gives you an extra .5" drop!<p>- Get a 4 wheel alignment done after installation (Very Important, if you don't want to buy new tires every 6 months).
