    I would do a little higher except for two things...

    With as much as I drive, every MPG counts, so in order for it to look right I would have to run bigger tires.

    The other, I don't want to get into or mess with all the vibration issues everyone keeps running into... Plus the need of UCA's to really get the alignment back into spec.

    I'll keep you in mind. On the plus side, if I ever do decide to go that route, I think I have seen sets for around $30.

    I'll post pics when I get it done.

    These type of storms don't necessarily follow fronts. They are caused by a heating of the lower level air, and instability in the upper (jet stream).

    All this to say, when conditions are right, they just blow up and seem to form out of no where.

    You will also notice, they are individual cells, or chains of cells... Not a wide spread area of rain.

    Thats why they are so powerful , they feed off all the warm air around. If they are alone, they tend to be more powerful. If they are surround by cells they tend to be less powerful because they eat up each others supply of warm moist air.

    ...Something along those lines.

    I'm no meteorologist, but I'll make a prediction... If it doesn't warm up more in the dallas area, we probably wont get very strong storms.

    There is a cell down near Hillsboro, but its 88 there right now. There are a few in east texas but its in the mid to high 70s.

    As long as we stay in the mid/low 60s it will probably reduce the chance of anything extremely severe.
