I just called a shop to have them installed, and they are quoting me 5 hours of labor (at $100/hour)!! Does that sound right?

we charge $315 at 78.15 an hour...

but its something we do a few times...

OK, so the quote is not that far off in terms of time. They say about 5 hours, and you are saying about 4. For some reason I thought it was a much smaller job.

Oh well, anything to make the car look fabulous. Thanks for the reply Jason.

no problem...

it is a farily easy install...

Remove Wheel,
Remove Caliper,
Remove Rotor,
Tap out existing hub bolts (there is a notch in the dust shield that will let them come out easily)
Pull in new hub bolts, take a few washers and put them under a lug nut and tighten it down until it is firm...
Replace Rotor,
Replace Caliper
Torque down lug nuts on wheel.

After 100 miles torque them down again...

I have 19" rims w/ +31 in front and +37 in the rear. What size spacers do I need? How much will it cost?

i thought about this mod...but then when you figure in the labor for install you could put that towards new rims...unless you have a way to do it yourself
