      Can I have your wheels? Those are my favorites of all time.

        good start, but those tires just make it look ridiculous haha. 225/50 on 15x8 is the way to go.

          That's the word on the streets, if I can offload these tires and not take too much of a hit I will try and get em swapped out, look for my fs thread on vortex!

            Lookin' good. 205/55R15's would look proper and clean up some of the wheel gap.
            The front ride height looks fine but a 10-15mm spacer with the bigger tires would really help with the flushening and the gap-reduction. For the rears pull the pads out and maybe throw a 15-20mm spacer in there and see what happens...

              sup man, nice pickup for a daily. yep, bigger tires will solve many problems. you'll just need coils to get the body back down to where it was, but that's the fun part.

                            That car does need to be lower, way lower. How much lower then stock is that anyway?

                              Exactly my point. All this talk about moar low, need bigger tires, but noone mentions that it needs euro bumpers. I just type confusing.
