Needs big brakes to fill them up now

Looking good, how does it ride with the ultralows and the 20's?

ride is great. not hard or anything. tyres are fairly soft compound from what i can tell.

yer guards are rolled, but when the front was as low as the back, the car was lifting up when i turned the front wheels. there was no clearence at alll. any slight bump i would ripped my guard out. the superlows at the front raised it more than i thought.

yer i did actually gain some clearence under the car. the 20's are bigger overall circumference, even with the low profile tyres. so ive gained a bit of ground clearence. wat a bonus aye!



and the skid problem should be fixed when i pik up my 3500rpm stallie.

spacers. gonna take the back spacers off. the offset needs to sit a little more in on the back so i can drop the back a little more. otherwise i hit on the guard and their only 225's.
