    If there is ever a good time for a cv boot to tear, it was yesterday.... After an hour drive from Orlando, I noticed what looked like oil sprayed down the passenger side skirt...pulled the wheel and saw the cv boot was torn. I guess it slung some grease out when it warmed up from the hour run...

    Recomendations are for the Street Advance, right?......If they ever show up...... seems like these things are hard to come by. Def not looking to slam this car....just close up the gap and even out front to back.
