Thanks! I will be safe! Well, I cant find anywhere on the net a place that says the weight of my stock wheels...but i do know that these new 18" ones are 28 lbs.!! and im sure my stock 16" rims are around 20 lbs...i dunno...plus, my new tires are 27 lbs...i dont even know what to guess the stock ones are...i just dont want to be bogged down...you know how much things like that can change the performance of such a small engine...especially the torque...because the weight of what is being torqued is VERY important to how much torque you have...if you have lighter, of course, the more torque will get to the ground...i just want to at least make it a little faster if im paying $1700 instead of loosing speed and handling...i am not rich...and i dont want to be dissapointed...ya know?? but ya, im going from 16"x6.5" 205/60R16 to 18"x8" 225/45ZR18...and the new tires/wheels together weigh 55 lbs...anyn more help?? =)

Thanks for reading this! Hey, I was wondering if anyone has found a reference to ordering the stock tweeter KIT into my '06 Fusion S?? Like the fog lamp issue for the Fusion S, I am yet to find a kit to install the stock tweeters...I would really like to install the tweeter kit and the fog lamp kit I think that would finish up my mod-ing for a while!! If so, could you tell me where you found the KIT?? I really appreciate it because i haven't taken a car apart yet...i'm kinda scared to to do sometihg wrong cuz its my first new car...ya know?? LOL...so is there any way that Best Buy/Circuit City could do that..if so, do u think they would do a genuine job??...also, do u think they could do fog lamps??...i am an avionics technician in the USAF and repair our aircrafts communication/navigation systems...but havent done a car yet..its diff im sure, plus, its my baby, not the Air Forces! haha...any advice? THANKS!!
