I was pretty freaked out about all the numbers but it really turned out to be perfect...The fronts are tucked just a tiny bit more than I would like but i'm super happy. I think I'm gonna try to lower the back a little more to get it level.

I'd leave the suspension alone! It looks great. Just a little bit of "rubber rake" looks tough!

Thanks...Ya, I really do like it but I have an obsession with getting stuff as low as possible, which is a sucky because I don't care how it rides or handles or anything...I just like em low

No offense to you, but band aids and bike rims isn't my thing. But you do have a sharp lookin' ride !!

ed2552 · 04-25-2009, 09:15 AM

Looks like it could use a little more rubber in the front, but other than that it looks great!!!

My grandpa said the same thing...except his comment had to do with how cheap my tires must be because all I had to do was wrap a few layers of electrical tape around them

I swing both ways though...I like both looks I just couldnt stand my old wheels.
