dammit rickey i just looked at pics of my car and comparing it to yours mine still looks like off roading status hahaha

Here is a pic taken today. I am running some huge beefy tires and it might not look low but its tucking tire all around. I havent adjusted them at all.. i just installed them right out of the box. I NEED to go about an inch and a half lower all around. I should of put something in the pic to compare the height to. but its about a chapstick and a half from the ground.



edited for a stock height comparison

^ its all rolling diameter bud. i.e. a 205/55/16 will prob have same or very similar rolling diameter to 235/35/19 etc.

so overall it dun change much. mine did seem to go up a bit when i got the 19s put on though. it def looked lower before, but ive been too lazy to adjust since then. mine was about jonboys height and then with 19s seemed to go a touch higher. i think its sort of mental as well, like when you see this "stock" looking big body car just slammed it looks like a rolling Photochop haha like it doesnt look right. then you stick 19s or 20s on it, and all of a sudden its only tucking a bit of sidewall instead of like 1/2 or 3/4 of it, and it doesnt seem as low.

il send those pics today for yah. Il take a pic today to compare the height to. everyone should expect being low that the car will get bumps/scrapes/scratches.. all that is cosmetic and im willing to keep fixing/painting parts as they come haha. the only thing i am REALLY careful with is the subframe.

I was thinking if i had a lip kit on all around i would be around the chapstick level you have haaha.

haha it seems like people who like being slammed is never satisfied with how LOW the car is already hahah you can never go low enough.

the rear fender sits lower.. and the front fender arches upwards more.. to make it seem like its uneven? but in reality if all fenders were the same it would look level... i think thats what you said hahaha if you did i think the same.
