Either way is fine....

Since my first car (1970 Datsun 1600) I can't seem to leave the height alone. Up, down, cars, trucks, bikes.... Not a single one. You guys know what I'm talking about.

Re: Either way is fine....

Pretty much everything I've had or have ends up lowered.
I have had a few lifted too though.

They just look so much better with an altitude adjustment.

Re: Either way is fine....

Yes! That truck is sick.

I've even picked up a Dodge Dakota at a power company auction. I figured, "I'll get this beater that I don't like at all. A vehicle I will just drive." I brought it in for new tires and I heard 33x12.5 Mt come out of my mouth. Of course, once I got home I looked at it and thought... Those wheel wells don't look right. It's gonna have to go up a couple inches.......

Re: Either way is fine....

I used to lift / lower my Hot Wheels when I was a kid ! Custom paint jobs with Mom's fingernail polish, etc. I'd say I'm not alone though. Model cars were easy. Nothing a match won't fix!!
