Coilovers and Wheels/tyres have next to no effect on warranty

Tru dat. those are generaly considered wearing parts that arent normally covered under the warranty. Warranties usually only cover you drive train so if you throw a aftermarket clutch, pistons, turbo/supercharger kit, sometimes even an intake will cause them to void warranty. but wheels and tires and suspension...ull be good

haha, regarding everyone about the warranty...i was just using that point in time as a reference for myself for firstly when I'd feel better about gutting the car and transforming it from a DD to a track Monster, as well as when I'd have a more comfortable budget to do those types of things. I did in fact have a set of coilovers but I was forced to sell them and not install due to medical bills sooo...i had a little set back but by the time my warranty is up i will be back on track(lol pun intended)
