Gotcha man. How did it feel compared to stock? The wheels didn't look too tucked under the fender did they? I know it won't be flush but I just don't want the fender to be hanging way over the tire, know what I mean?

I would say it rides pretty much the same as stock. The fender was just above the tire, so it isn't too bad.

Do you think some wider rims and tires would fix that pretty easily?

I went with 20x9 with 285/35 and 20x10.5 with 305/35 and the wheel gap got a little bigger in the front because the overall size of the wheel and tire is shorter than the 18"s. Here's what it looks like now.

Thank you. I just wish the gap was a little smaller. It'll look better once the 22"a are mounted

Don't think I ever got around to posting a pic after install.
Here's one I just took, love the stance, feels better in turns as well.

Finally got a pic to download.....
Installed the 1.25 drop springs......
What a great stance!
She corners flatter also, no body roll like stock height.
