Re: Secret Project :)

Nice

I"m gatering the same lowing parts for mine and I'm real close to the going down date. I'm listening up to see if it rubs anywhere. So there has to be a big secret here, what is it? Mine is keeping the cost factor away from my wife. So I have a set of ralley wheels instead of coys

Re: Secret Project :)

let me know if they rub i did some calculations last night. My 15 inch tires right now stand at 27.5 inches tall. If i decide to run 20s and keep the same ride height i will only be able to run a 30 series tire. Damn and thats little but would look bad ass for sure. decisions decisions
