adj. LCA and Panhard bar

i am looking (ok need to) purchase a set of LCA's and a panhard bar. i was thinking of going with spohn's version but which ones should i use. the car is just a summer ride and will see the drag track three times a year. no road racing or anything like that and i am not going to lower the car either. i am running the zr1 rims (17x11) but dont know what tire size yet (275 or 315). maybe next year i might replace the rear with a 9" also but not to sure yet cause i dont know if the rear can handle the stroker motor. any tips will be helpful.thanks

If you arn't going to lower the vehicle then you really don't need adjustable stuff. and fyi I have a set of Global west lcas for sale, they are non adjustable and have the bearings on boath ends. I am going to get some adjustable ones because I have sportlines.

I would like 200 shiped for the LCAs. they are 300 new and only have a coupple thousand miles on them. and for tires, if you go with 17X11 I would get at least a 295/35/17 but I have seen a vette with 315s and they look verry good. just don't get a 275, that is way to small.

irocdan, Can you tell me your adapter specs and wheel offset are they 56(front)/50(rear) ones or the 38(front)/36(rear) ones. I plan on getting some ZR1's for my car soon.
