Aggressive Wheels & Stretched Tires: Post 'Em Up! [[Some NSFW]]
Wheel fitment and lip size are 2 completely different things.
Fitment wise a 5" lip will look just as good as a 5.5" lip with the same offsets/tire size. Noone will know the difference unless you were to physically go and measure.
I am able to fit a 5.5" lip with my bbk which is still bigger than almost everyone w/o a BBK. So you can easily have the best of both worlds. Having a bbk doesn't make a set up less aggressive. It makes you unable to run a slightly bigger lip, that is all.
In your opinion having a .5" bigger lip is more jaw dropping than having a ballin a$$ BBK shining through.
And IMO i think not having a bbk takes away from the JAW DROPPINGNESS of a setup!
opinions are great since everyone gets one of their own

...I also think if your gonna run stretched...at least run something with enough side wall to semi protect the wheel...I think you should have at least 265/35 
JMHO...still like your G Shane
I went with .5 bigger cause I can easily fit it since I was only at -2.5 camber that's why. I'll be dong the same thing wth the fronts as well. But it's true you me nor anyone else can really tell the difference in .5". as for tire i was using the 265 already so I didn't change it I will always stick with 30 series cause again, IMO less tire looks better. I donno why this turned into a pissing contest lol so let's just end it there
Yeah, I definitely gotta check it out then. I stiffened up the preload a lil, but also raised it a lil more. It matches more with the front, but I think I need it a quarter inch lower. Looks pretty good, buy I don't really get any more wheel mating with the fender anymore.
