Your 245s on a 9.5 might run small. Tire sizing is not consistent between brands. When you choose a tire you should consider whether it runs small, true or large.

^LOL, nah I just got tired of letting my car sit 5 or 6 days a week. My oldest son really enjoys riding in the car, so that was another motivation.

Truck doesn't take premium but eats a lot of gas. Probably am saving some money by driving the G.

I'm just glad you're rolling hard again like most of us!

Needs more low in the rear and some stretched tires to clear the front from pulling the fender.

What size spacers did you end up going with?

EDIT: Did a little searching and found that you went with 25mm spacers all around...


I was the first one to reply when you asked and told you to go with 20mm spacers all around. This is why I get multiple PM's a day about wheel fitment, LOL!!!

i'm good with how the front sits, i shoulda listened about the rear...i measured the rear and it seemed to have about 1" clearance, so i thought i could push it...i bought the eastwood fender finisher and pinched all 4 corners...gonna go down to a smaller spacer, what size now looking at how it ended up? 20mm finally?

My rule of thumb, whatever you end up measuring, take off 5mm and go with that. It hasn't failed me yet (knocks on wood) If the front doesn't rub right now then i'd stick with that and drop down to a 20mm in the rear.

Reaper, looks good. You can dial in a touch of neg camber in the rear if you want. Much better though.

Posted this in the aggressive thread, will post here for the other sedan guys to see...

Ummm, yeah. Sh*t ain't happening. If I can't get into my driveway, I definitely can't get anywhere in LA. It's not that steep. Rear is raised 2" from maxed out position. Fronts are close to maxed out so I have a raked stanced. Only doing that since one side of my rear fenders is cut, the other needs cutting, and I need to hammer the rears out more. Don't want any metal to dig into the tires or and tire rubbing (or scraping the freshly powdercoated wheels on the inner fenders).

Rocking no front bumper right now, might throw on the kenstyle back on after everything is adjusted or find an oem, i'll see what's up.
