    Lift and tires ran me about $2500 all together. The lift was around $1200. I bought it all locally. What coil springs are you looking to do. I went with the nitro charger shocks as well.

    I actually do not know what size the wheels are. Probably closer to 8" no chalk test. Thanks!

    It's covered under comprehensive with no fault. I still have to pay the $500 deductible though. :censored:

    Not exactly sure, it looks like a cylindrical object but it came at me so fast that I didn't get a good look at it.

    Put that $500 towards an upgraded bumper and leave insurance out of it.

    It seems that the problem with those $5 wedding rings is that they add girth but not depth like the hondos. That was why I went with the hondos. Well worth the extra $20.

    Those are only 7.5" wide That's why I asked the question. Seems like that wheel will pinch the tires causing extreme center tread wear at full inflation thus need to chalk test to get correct psi in tires.

    I've heard girth is more important than depth anyway... :devil:

    I have the Viair 88P along with the black, (you can get it in in color) Mechanics tool bag to store it in. Has enough room for your tire gauge and a few extra little things.

    I'm sure you can pull it off. It's not bad, just takes a little time. Grind down the head of the rivet on the rear bracket and then cut it it'll fall off. Then grind down the rivet to the leaf and paint it with some rustolium. Took me like 2 hours on one side because I was trying to bang the rivet out. After trying forever I just decided to paint it and call it a day. Took me 15 minutes on the driver side.

    Yes bit they still look better and they do make it easier to adjust. I like them for now.

    Mine work a hell of a lot better than those tiny stock ones. Not wedding rings just soft rubber that's a hair deeper than stock. Have not accidentally touched my screen since installed. And still sitting on the extra $20.

    I use the steering wheel controls 99% of the time. I am just used to that way of controlling the radio. I have big fingers and have no problem with the radio knobs when I do use them.
