MP, I see you want the TenzoR's, I have them and they are great, if you have anything bugger than a 225 series tire you may rub at full lock and in the rear when going over bumps.

Do not buy solid mounts if you plan on having cams because all it does is stop the tranny from shacking but makes everything else shack.

Yeah less that 100 around there on the 1 mount. the other is getting installed this weekend. It got a little better but when you just give it a little gas it move like 5 yards that's when it gets bad.
