I like it. I looked into buying those wheels but they didn't come in the fitment I wanted. Pretty cheap for multipiece wheels too. A very good buy.
Like what you've done.

thanks guys

id like to level the front down a little bit just to even it out but i dont want to lower it in the back any more; i dont even have hardly any clearance as it is in the back so i couldnt lower it even if i want to

right now if i have people in the back seat and i take a hard bump i can hear the wheels rub from inside the cab

does anybody know if i put the eiback springs on just the front if that would level me out or would it go lower than the back is now?

would doing the springs only in the front throw my suspension out of whack?

anyone got any other ideas on how to level it out?

i know back in the day we used to cut the springs or clamp a couple coils together to lower cars but im not sure hacking up my suspension to get a little better look is worth the damage to the ride quality etc...
