Hmm, that is a little suspect.

I did not know about the 1LE Turbo... there seems to always be a special edition of every car that is always slightly better or different enough to mess with autocross classing!

Photos with the new rims/tires?

Especially with pony cars. I swear that Ford comes out with a new minor version of the Mustang every week, or so.

Even if wheels don't fall off, loose suspension components can lead to excess play, misalignment, undesirable/unpredictable behavior, premature wear on other components, etc.
