Our cars are almost exactly the same! lol except for yours being an S... I think if I had the S suspension, i probably wouldn't be getting my coils. Just can't stand the gap and the regular journey suspension isn't rigid enough for me. and the adjustable coils are a huge plus considering I'm thinking of getting tires a bit wider, maybe 235 F & 265 R....
How do you like the Hankooks? Seems like a perennial favorite on this forum...

Where did you manage to pick up those coupe rims? Are they 19" I've been looking for some just not willing to pay $1600 for four of them $1000-$1200 would be acceptable so if anyone is selling a set of 4 in decent shape PM me. Thanks'

By the way, I got lucky that my brother had a 07' coupe and he had put aftermarket rims on it so they were just lying in the garage. I did have to refinish them and buy one. All I needed to buy were tires.

i stand corrected. looks like they added the steering gear and suspension. the 07 o8 sport didnt get that. my 07 just has bigger brakes and sways as far as suspension goes.
so the S swaybar is different from the Journey rwd swaybar? Is it a big improvement? I've never been able to get a sure answer on this. And when they say sport tuned suspension, are the springs actually lower or stiffer than Journey rwd?
I am not sure whether only springs are different on the sports package (RWD) or the struts/shocks too. Other upgrades include brakes, steering ratio, seats, side sills, bumper, and vlsd.

Looks like my twin. Except I have the Journey with the sport front bumper. All I need is the sport side skirts. I've been thinking about lowering my car too, but I am not sure yet because I don't want to be scraping the bottom of my car. Here is a picture of my ride.
I remember going through this stuff too. All of the RWD models rear sway bars are the same size. The AWD has a bigger sway bar at the front and a puny sway in the back.
