    Wooo... budget.. that's a loaded question. Lets say I can save as long as I need to for the right equipment, but I'd like to keep it in the sub 1K range if possible. Wheeling yes.. looks, not so much. This is my daily driver as well as a vehicle we use on trips to places like big bend, new mexico or moab.. things like that. I want a bit more clearance and an overall better ride.

    I just did mine to get the gas tank up a little bit; we actually clear about the same height at our lowest point as is. Plus, I'm planning on runing 285 75/17's, as soon as my wallet recovers from everything else. How big of tire are you wanting to go, and do you want to chop body mounts?

    I don't know if I want to go all the way up to 285 75's.. I wouldn't mind going a couple inches over the stock. And no, I need reliability and longevity.. if I can get that without chopping up sheetmetal.. I'd rather do that. See me again in 3 or 4 years for making too many metal mods!

    Anyone around here own or know someone who owns a 2010-2016 BMW 335i or 535i? Have a Dinan Stage 1 Performance tuner I'm trying to sell. I'd be willing to throw in a finders fee; beer, tacos, cash, :D Thanks.
    Oh, link to ad for specific vehicles and info: https://austin.craigslist.org/pts/5984044738.html

    OME all the way around, leafs, springs, shocks. You won't be disappointed. Only thing extra I would recommend is aftermarket UCA's, Camburg is fairly priced and reliable.

    All this talk of 35s has got me hot and bothered. @Texoma, can we make them fit without more lift? I like my OMEs.
